Oregon's Public Beaches

Oregon’s 362-miles of ocean beaches are open to all for exploring. Whether you're picnicking, soaking up the sun or watching a spectacular sunset, make sure your trip is a safe one. 

Visit Safe Ways to Explore the Beach to learn about sneaker waves, rip tides and drift logs.​

For more information about Oregon's beaches, including recreation FAQs (from dogs to driving and marine debris), history and more, visit the Ocean Shore State Recreation Area page.

Oregon’s beaches are protected nesting grounds for a small shorebird called the western snowy plover. During nesting season (March 15 – Sep. 15), some recreation activities may be restricted or prohibited in designated plover management areas. Nesting area locations and restrictions​

Oregon Coast Trail is an iconic hiking route that stretches along the entire 362-mile Oregon coastline. The trail traverses sandy beaches, forested trails, stunning headlands, and 28 coastal towns. Some sections are disconnected, inconvenient, unsafe, or seasonally inaccessible and require careful route planning. Visit Oregon Coast Trail for more information.
