"Busy on a Monday holiday. Loads of families and screaming children having fun in the streams and alcoves. Many playing football. Parking lot was full as well. Lovely natural features - smooth beach, streams cascading down rocks, etc. Nice place for a quick stop."
"Subscribe on YouTube @PNWStateofMind for Nature and Music Videos of PNW Scenery. Waterfalls and Caves are spectacular here. Come after a heavy rain to see a big waterfall running into the great Pacific Ocean. Make sure you go when the tides are low."
"I can honestly say that every stop we make along the Oregon coast is just awesome! We've been up and down this coast several time and we keep finding new stops each that amazes us. Put some gas in your vehicle and just drive the coast for fun."
"What a super beach, small, secluded, quiet, when Tide is out lots of walking and running. Love this place. Get here early, parking fills up quickly or you will be driving around waiting. Not too many people this past Thursday August 17th."
"One of favorite places on the Oregon Coast. A great place for the family, and especially children. There's so much to explore. The parking lot is small, which can be a challenge , but this beach is an absolute must see! Low tide is the best time to visit, as some beaches are inaccessible when the tide is in. Hug point is a gem on the Oregon Coast."
