Rockaway Beach Old Growth Nature Preserve — photo spot in 947 N Hwy 101 So, Rockaway Beach, OR 97136, USA
Rockaway Beach Old Growth Nature Preserve
Dense coastal old-growth forest with towering Sitka spruce, moss-draped trunks and a short boardwalk trail that opens to ocean views and rocky shorelines. Ideal for intimate forest detail shots and dramatic coastal landscapes. Visit at golden hour or in soft overcast for even light; fog adds mood. Trail is short and mostly accessible; small parking area on Hwy 101, no fee. Weekday mornings reduce crowds. Respect fragile habitat and stay on paths.
