    Battle Rock as seen from Redfish restaurant.

    Spectacular views! Take your time to walk down to the beach. You will find the beach goes at least a couple miles south. Pay attention to the waves. Also, you will see the occasional seal lion too.

    Lots of excellent views of the ocean. Lots of great sandy beaches to walk on, the visitor center was closed, but the restrooms are still open, and clean.

    Took a drive here from Gold Beach which ended up being about a 45 min drive. We waited a few days to try the "Crazy Norwegian fish and chips". Yelp had some amazing reviews about it and it looked to be the best In the whole area so figured it would be worth the drive. We get there and it's closed the one day we decided to try it!! Such a let down. Anyways this Battle Rock and Beach was a block away so we decided to take a good hour walk down the beach. They should call this place Crab Beach. Most I've ever seen in my life!! Well over 100 shells and a Live one that washed up to our feet! Lots of life on this beach. It was so freakn cool! Other than the history of slaughtering a bunch of Indians at the rock, the formations of rocks and aggressive water was worth the drive. Real cool part of the Oregon Coast

    I took a hard left after seeing the sign to this secluded beach along Oregon's beautiful coast…read moreline, my QX80 handled the steep grades of loose gravel just fine after finding the far left side of the road offered a much smoother ride as I whipped it around the switch backs to the tiny parking lot, almost proud of my off-road excursion only to find a few nimble cars and motorcycles had taken the same route without issue - I guess the sign suggesting four wheeled drive vehicles beyond a certain point is somewhat overstated - but I did enjoy the ride down even though my embellishment was only in my head. Once you park it's a fairly short hike down a well marked path, you may be tempted to take in all the scenery from the small park at the top but believe me the awesomeness will meet you at the waters edge. There's a small creek dividing the open area at the bottom of the trail it's a cake walk to cross it and if you've come this far you have to find a way to cross it, its about thirty feet wide but on this day it was merely a few inches deep, of course if there's a flash flood warning when you visit then your story may differ from mine. The sand is mostly silty in and around the creek but loosens up as your approach the water. As you stand amongst the giant rocks the waves atomizes the cool ocean water as it crashes into the rocks gently misting you with its salty spray, today the weather was quite warm so it was a welcoming anointment. The drift wood and rugged terrain is prehistoric and it's easy to imagine the Jurassic world when you stand so close to creation. The relentlessness of the ocean is almost deafening as the waves march ashore but yet it's a tranquil paradise filled with life forms that dance in the foam and tidal pools. If you can't find your sanity here all may be lost...

    We love this beach when we are in Oregon. This is one of our go to spots for day use. The beach…read moreis awesome for finding shells, agates and driftwood. It's also fairly empty and quite. My dog really enjoys running around and playing here. Once we are done on the beach there are plenty of trails for her to walk on and wildlife to see. She especially loves the birds and the turkeys. It's easy to spend 4 hours here daily just exploring and enjoying the water. It's fairly clean and safe since the beach is a decent ways away from the road. We haven't camped here or used the restrooms. We just enjoy the water and the trails. It's a perfect place for a picnic on a warm day and an excellent area to stretch your legs on a car trip.

We arrived late after dark and it was very easy to check in with no ranger present at the gate house. In the morning we awoke to find a beautiful campsite with easy access to the beach and the Coquille River Lighthouse. We met friendly RVers right next to us and I would gladly stay here again. Generally, Bandon doesn't get as much attention as some of the other spots up the coast, but I really liked it here. The beach is quiet and peaceful and, although it doesn't have the crazy rock formations that some others do, it is definitely worth a visit. The driftwood here was nuts!
