Manzanita Beach

Manzanita Beach. The name means "little apple" in Spanish. 7 miles of pristine white sand with shiny-wet "hard" sand near the tideline. Stretching from the base of Neahkahnie Mountain to the Nehalem Bay jetty, between the dunes and the Pacific Ocean, the beach is perfect all year round. At the south end you'll find seals lounging on the jetty rocks or fishing in the waters.
