Several good camping spots surround the small coastal town of Depoe Bay on the Oregon coast. Beverly Beach State Park Campground sits among old-growth trees just a short drive away, with clean bathrooms, showers, and a path that leads right to the beach. South Beach State Park Campground, located a bit further south, has bigger campsites and puts you close to nature trails and the Oregon Coast Aquarium. If you need an RV spot, Sea and Sand RV Park is about four miles from Depoe Bay with full hookups and good access to nearby beach towns. Cape Lookout State Park Campground takes longer to reach but rewards campers with great ocean views and hiking trails. Most people who camp in this area spend their time walking the beaches, hiking, or watching for whales and other wildlife. Weather changes quickly on the coast, so bring layers and rain gear no matter when you visit. The campgrounds are less crowded in spring and fall when temperatures stay mild. The Depoe Bay area has camping options that work well whether you're in a tent or driving an RV.
