Carl Washburne State Park | Florence | Oregon

Just north of Florence you’ll find this lovely stretch of beach adjacent to Hobbit Beach and just around the corner from the iconic Heceta Head Light House called Carl Washburne State Park.

Beach Walks

Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall walks along this shore are both beautiful and therapeutic. We’ve caught both sunrises and sunsets here and the landscapes are truly breath-taking. Along the way, we’ve found lovely stones scattered everywhere just waiting to be picked up by the handfuls including a number of agates.

Picnics & Campfires

For day trips, the Yeti Hopper Flip is our go-to travel cooler so one chilly winter trip, we picked up all the makings for beach-side charcuterie board from Provisions Market complete with a bottle of port to enjoy around the campfire.

Sunsets

Because of the long flat beach in every direction, the sunsets are truly breathtaking from every angle . . . we just couldn’t stop taking pictures!
