There were many people enjoying their time on the beach, which is understandable because Nehalem Bay State Park is right behind mile 298.

From the entrance to the beach from the state park, walking north, I saw about 40 people, eight dogs, three horses, lots of washed up upside-down crabs, and several small beached jellyfish.
