Easy walk to a beach and over look. A little hard to find. Walk behind sewage plant.

Chetco Point Park is a beautiful little park with fantastic views of the Oregon coast. The short walk to the point is easy, and once you get there, you’re surrounded by rocky cliffs, ocean views, offshore rocks, and waves crashing below. We visited with the whole family and really enjoyed walking around and taking in the scenery. The cool ocean air was especially refreshing after spending so many days traveling through much hotter areas.
