Report Details
A beautiful day on the beach, with little human activity on the beach, around Haystack Rock and Ecola Creek. Limited beach activity is due to Covid-19 social distancing and the fact that Cannon Beach continues to be closed to visitors. The weather was amazing, sunny and 60's. It has been fun to watch, through these reports, how the location of the mouth of Ecola Creek continues to change in location, the mouth moving farther north over time. Overall it was a quiet, beautiful day.
