Musings on cats, travel, gardens and life
There is no coast like the West Coast, and the best coast is in Oregon; this, from a Washingtonian who loves our beaches, too!

The most famous of Oregon’s beaches is Cannon Beach, where you’ll see a 235 ft. sea stack, Haystock Rock; there is no cannon to be found anywhere.

Other rugged rocks can be seen also, and plenty of pelicans, too.




We stopped by on our way to Pacific City, where we’re headed for my niece’s wedding.
The beach at Cape Kiwanda is equally beautiful and I hope to share pictures from there later this week.

These are great photos! They make me want to visit!!
Thank you! Definitely worth the visit!!
A very beautiful beach, it looks huge!! Is that a lighthouse in one photo?
You have a good eye. That is an old lighthouse in the distant background!
Thanks Susanne!! 😊
It’s a beautiful beach for sure. I believe there’s a cannon in the city museum, from a ship that sank nearby, and it was that which prompted the name of the community.
Thanks, Graham. I knew there was a cannon in its history somewhere! 😊
It looks fabulous! xx
Yes indeed! Thank you. 😊
Thanks for sharing 🙂 ‘Been there , done it , seen it , 1962 🙂
Still here! Only the town is maybe bigger! 😊
Yes, a stunning beach indeed! I especially love your last shot, it looks magical!
Thanks so much, Sarah! 😊
Very impressive rocks, and big beaches. The area remins me a lot of Cornwall, in south-west England.
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks, Pete. It’s probably the most famous beach on the Oregon Coast. 😊
And still, no crowds! It looks just like I remembered it from the 1970s only then there were no people in sight at all.
Huge beach, lots of room for all, even during summer!
Just beautiful
thank you 🙂
