We were told before going that Cannon Beach is possibly the nicest place along the Oregon Coast. I think this is true! While busy and FULL of tourists, it manages to keep it's charm.
It is so quaint. The little shops and houses are very well kept, there are window boxes everywhere.
The
beach here is fantastic. This is the home of Haystack Rock and it's,
well, a giant rock. It's fun to watch how the tide moves in on it and
then away as the day goes on. Sometimes it's possible to walk right up
to it, and other times not, depending on the tide. The water here is
VERY cold. Too cold for me to bother swimming. Actually, there wasn't
much swimming done by anyone. Children played along the edges of the
water, but that's about it.
There was a stream feeding
into the ocean out to once side, so we took the boys there. The water
was a bit warmer here. Still not warm enough for my liking, but the boys
seemed to enjoy it, along with a number of other children.
As always, lots of photos to share!
