Bay Ocean Spit

About this event


This coastal loop hike is in the Tillamook area. We start from the Bay Ocean Peninsula Park parking lot. We'll cross the dunes and then walk north along the beach all the way to the jetty at the tip of the peninsula. We will probably have lunch there. We continue from there and loop back along an old road track along Tillamook Bay. You may want to bring binoculars.
There is a $10 per vehicle Tillamook County Day Use Access Parking Fee. The machine only takes credit cards.
We leave at 08:00 am from the West Salem Safeway. Park on the south  side facing Edgewater Street.
