Oswald West State Park is a place with natural beauty that truly inspires. Just a quarter mile from any of the parking areas to the beach, yet the rigors of everyday life are stripped away by the time guests feet hit the sand. Although the walk is short, there are several different trails to the beach and lead visitors to the Cape Falcon overlook or to the Pacific Coast Trail. Be sure to pick up a map on the way into the park. All of the trails to the beach are through a mature forest; one trail follows the winding path of the Short Sands creek. This trail gives way to the spectacular view of the ocean and the creek meeting. This is a visitor's first glimpse of the ocean and Short Sands beach. The beach is nestled in a cove that provides guests with a feeling of total privacy. Popular with windsurfers and boogie boarders, the beach is always alive with activity. Surrounded by the mountains, the beach at Oswald West gives visitors a sense of being transported away from the trials of everyday life.
