Cape Perpetua

Campground is typical tiny and the beach a cozy harbor

The truth is, you wouldn't know there was a beach near this campground at all unless you are willing to walk out to it. The beach campgrounds in Oregon are often set back from the beach proper and this one is no exception. it's a crowded place where many a fifth wheel gets stuck trying to maneuver into the lanes of campsites. They deliver firewood to your site for cheap and there's a dirty little creek running through the center of the place. Huckleberry bushes abound...

The campground was crowded and normally busy. The rangers were present and the restrooms attended to regularly because they had to be.

Getting to the beach is a neat walk through a little Rec area...There's a nice cove where the tide comes in and out and people use little boats and kayaks to enjoy the harbor's calm waters.
