Quite nice beach. The only way to get to it is live there or walk along the beach 2.5 miles from Gleneden Park. Worth the walk, great place for meditation.

Sure seems like a private state park for Salishan residents,the map shows you tread water from the public parking by Mo's across to the state park,where's the handicap access across the water lol

Worth the long walk if you can't pass through the vehicle access private security gate. Seals routinely sunbathe here. The seals seem accustomed to humans and don't freak out if you approach to reasonable selfie distance. There are agates to be found at the cape and along the three-plus mile trek from the resort. Will return.

Awesome morning walk. Lots of dog lovers, but wished they pick up after their 3 greyhounds. I saw it. Great spot for agate hunting, at low tide. Cliff's of sand that look like the Grand Canyon. Great day watching harbor seal across the breachway.
