Otter Point State Recreation Site - The Beach Hideaway On The Oregon Trail

 
Come experience majestic views, great hikes and spectacular sunsets from the flat, sandy beaches at Otter Point State Recreation Site. Located just 3 miles north of Gold Beach and the mouth of the Rogue River, Otter Point is a wonderful small state park with much to offer those seeking to experience the beauty of nature and outdoor adventures at the same time. With two almost hidden beaches and a spectacularly carved sandstone point, you can hike, fish, whale watch and even take your dog on a walk in the "unleashed" area of the beach. Driftwood, beach grass covered dunes and several small creeks mark these wild and practically untouched Oregon beaches, making a visit to them the perfect addition to your vacation plans.
