What are some of the best beaches in Oregon?
As a coastal state, you better bet we have some amazing beaches. There is such a diverse variety of beaches as well. Here are a few unique beaches in Oregon that we think you'll love:
- Cobble Beach, Newport, OR: What happens to jagged sharp lava rock after 14 million years? It ends up on Cobble Beach smooth as a baby's, well you know what we mean. This fascinating beach near the Yaquina Head Lighthouse is a picture-perfect spot where you can enjoy the gentle sound of waves over time-worn pebbles. You'll also find incredible tide pools teaming with life. The towering sea stacks also draw a crowd - Common Murres are seabirds that live in the area, and they number in the several hundred thousand range!
- Lincoln Beach, Lincoln City, OR: If you are looking for a gorgeous recreational beach in Oregon, Lincoln Beach is one of the best. This incredible seven-mile beach is the longest in Oregon. It is a beachcombers paradise with shells, beach glass, driftwood, and tide pools to enjoy. Lincoln Beach is also a great spot to launch kayaks and paddle boards. And when the tides are just right and the ocean looks like a glowing sheet of glass in the morning sun, get ready for some epic surfing.
- Seaside Beach, Seaside, OR: This North Coast town in Oregon where the Necanicum River forms an estuary at the Columbia River is a clam-tastic spot for collecting razor clams and sand dollars. Because of the unique characteristics of the estuary, the waters are rich in the nutrients these two sea creatures thrive on. If love collecting seashells, sand dollars, and razor clams, this hidden gem offers a beautiful bounty of treasures.
