Sunset on the Oregon Coast

Oswald West State Park
Soak in the scenery along the half-mile paved path through old growth forest to this SW facing beach. Depending on swell and wind direction, take your pick from either the north or south end walls, or from several peaks in-between. Very crowded on summer weekends, but the vibe is generally friendly. If you are easily annoyed by beginners practicing on the inside, better surf somewhere else. Overnight camping a bonus.
