No visit to the coast would be complete without exploring the best Oregon beaches—with their sweeping white sand, stunning rock formations, and crisp saltwater sea air. However, for those looking for a peaceful retreat, there are a few beaches off the beaten path for a secluded trip. While Haystack Rock on Cannon Beach is a beautiful locale and should be a stop on your list, if you’re looking for a lesser-known place to sit back and take in the waves, there are many fantastic options on the coast.
One of the best and often undiscovered Oregon beaches is Cove Beach, aka Magical Rocks Beach, just south of Arch Cape, Oregon, right on the cusp of Oswald West State Park. Cove Beach got its nickname from the volcanic rock sections dotting the white sand. As the waves recede from the rocks, there’s an audible click and clack, creating an out-of-this-world experience.
