Columbia River South Jetty Observation Tower — photo spot in Jetty Rd, Hammond, OR 97121, USA
Columbia River South Jetty Observation Tower
Elevated concrete tower at the south jetty where the Columbia River meets the Pacific — prime for dynamic waterscape frames of breaking surf, ship traffic, sandbars, and long coastal horizons. Best at sunrise and golden hour for warm side-light on the jetty and moody late-winter storms for dramatic skies. Tower and jetty are reachable from a small parking area on Jetty Rd; expect wind, spray, and limited facilities. Weekday mornings are quieter. Respect wildlife and local anglers; no special fee
