| | Beverly Beach State Park | | This park is popular for a reason! Like magic, a well-known walkway goes under the highway and emerges to the long expanse of sandy beach extending from Yaquina Head (Visitors can see the lighthouse from here) to the headlands of Otter Rock. Visitors may swim, sunbathe or fish on the beach. The campground is open year-round. |
|
| | Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park | | This state park has the second largest overnight camp in the state. There are two miles of sand dunes between the park and the ocean. Two natural freshwater lakes are within the park. During the winter, off-road vehicle users can access the sand dunes from H Loop. This is a camp for all seasons. The ocean is only a short distance away. It is recommended that visitors come during the summer months to watch the seals play on the shore. Bird watching has become very popular because of the pink rhododendrons that inhabit the area. |
|
| | Ona Beach State Park | | This beach is located 8 miles south of Newport, Oregon. The park is a fine, forested ocean flat that has now been developed for extensive daytime shore use. Ona beach provides easy access for beachcombing and great for large picnic gatherings. |
|
| | South Beach State Park | | This park and the surrounding areas offer a variety of recreational opportunities. One of the most exciting additions to the program at South Beach: kayak tours. Folks who register for the activity will launch from nearby Ona Beach. It is located only 5 miles south of the park. Visitors will spend two hours exploring the fascinating Beaver Creek area with a guide. Other activities around the park include fishing, crabbing, boating, windsurfing and beachcombing. |
