This place was beautiful! You walk down a green and lush paved walkway surrounded by berry bushes. Then, the walkway turns to a dirt walkway full of roots and stones. Then, the foliage opens up to a driftwood littered beach and the imposing ocean! So gorgeous! Perfect for a stroll, a picnic or just family time to hang out and play in the sand.
We have been here twice and camped in a tent in C6 and C8- 6 is best! This campsite has always been full of good natured people and families and the amenities are wonderful as well as the rangers and hosts. I think you will love it as much as we do. It does get very damp on the coast so be sure to bring a water proof tarp for over your tent!! The beach is amazing with lots of sea-life to discover and rocky trails to climb. Highly recommend this campground.
Beautiful little spot to spend some time at the beach. Seems to get a little crowded at sundown as people enjoy the view. We used the day use area several times over a few days and accessed a different part of the beach each day. Found star fish and other marine life at low tide. Family friendly. Flushable toilets and picnic benches. We visited over Memorial Day weekend and it wasn’t too crowded.

Such beautiful weather this year. This is our favorite spot to camp in Oregon. The seascape is unique. Oh and especially the backdrop during the sunset hour is really spectacular. We will come back here every year if we can.
Beautiful state park and campground at Harris Beach! A mixture of full hookups, water + electric, and rustic sites. Most are very generous spaces with vegetation surrounding for privacy. The bath houses are well equipped and maintained. Loved having a fire ring for the evenings.
Great little beach at the park with interesting rock formations and tidal pools. There are some walking trails and the campground is close to Brookings (only 15 min walk to town). Will definitely come back here when we are next on the Oregon coast!
