Cannon Beach Beach Vacations

Haystack Rock and a wide, moody beach.

Oregon's postcard: Haystack Rock, tide pools, bonfires on the sand and a small town of galleries and bakeries.

Overview

Why Cannon Beach.

Cannon Beach is a sweater-weather beach: Haystack Rock rising out of the tide pools, puffins in summer, driftwood fires at sunset and a walkable town with good coffee, chowder and galleries. Ecola State Park at the north end has the viewpoints. It is ninety minutes from Portland.
