Oregon Coast Camping: Visit The Scenic Beverly Beach State Park

RVers driving the Oregon Coast Highway can find dozens of highly-rated parks on Campground Reviews, including the popular Beverly Beach State Park on the Central Coast near Newport. Between the long sandy beach and large wooded campground, Beverly Beach State Park is a picture-perfect place for an Oregon Coast camping trip.

Beverly Beach camping

Beverly Beach campground is hidden among the trees along Spencer Creek, just a short walk from the beach. The campground includes 53 full hookup sites (27 with cable TV), 78 sites with electricity and water, and 128 tent sites with water available nearby. Those without tents and RVs can also find yurts to stay in, however, they are temporarily closed due to the pandemic.

A short walkway leads from the campground under the highway bridge out towards the beach. The long expanse of beach offers breathtaking views of the Yaquina Head Lighthouse and the headlands of Otter Rock. With the right weather conditions, the windy beach makes a perfect destination for kite flying.
