Oceanside Oregon - not Canon Beach

Oceanside Oregon located just west of Tillamook is hidden on the coast of Oregon. Oceanside is not right off historical highway 101 like many of Oregon's other coastal towns, it takes a bit of driving to get to it. Oceanside is not Canon Beach even though the rock formations in the water look similar.

Oceanside Oregon

The best part of Oceanside is the public parking clearly in view of the ocean and not the "please may I park here" feeling of Canon Beach. This beautiful hidden Oregon gem is not overpopulated by commercial activity as what has happened to Canon Beach and Seaside over the past 20 years. 

If you are looking for that Oregon Coast day trip, this is the place.
