Agate Beach State Recreation Site
Wide sandy beach backed by tall sand hummocks, a safe under-road tunnel access, and distant lighthouse views. Shoot expansive low-tide seascapes, dune textures, surf action and moody foggy mornings. Best at sunrise/golden hour or fog for atmosphere; winter storms add drama. Small parking and seasonal restrooms; tunnel makes crossing safe but expect uneven dunes and occasional stream crossings. Dogs common—respect leash rules.
