Beverly Beach is popular for a reason! Like magic, a well-known walkway goes under the highway and emerges to the long expanse of sandy beach extending from Yaquina Head (you can see the lighthouse from here) to the headlands of Otter Rock. When the weather cooperates, kites color the air and whip in the wind. Bring a bucket and build a sand castle! Surfers often head to the north beach, while folks looking for fossils head south.

A few steps from the ocean you'll find the forest-sheltered campground. Giant, wind-sculpted trees and nurse logs surround the campsites strung along pebbly Spencer Creek. There is a Visitors Information Center located near the registration booth where you can also purchase books,souvenirs or educational toys.The childrens playground is located next to the program area. The picnic area is a grassy, tree-lined spot protected from summer winds by a charming yurt group meeting hall. It's hard to believe all this is a few minutes drive from the Oregon Coast Aquarium, Yaquina Head and other prime attractions.
History of the Area
Beverly Beach State Park is located on the central coast of Oregon, nestled between Yaquina Head and Otter Rock. The park's history dates back to ancient times when Native American tribes inhabited the area for thousands of years before European settlers arrived.

In the 1800s, pioneers began settling in this region as they sought new opportunities along the Pacific coastline. These early settlers established small communities near Beverly Beach, taking advantage of its abundant natural resources such as timber and fish.

During World War II, a portion of Beverly Beach was used by U.S. military forces for training exercises due to its strategic location overlooking the ocean. Afterward, it returned to civilian use but remained relatively undeveloped until later years.
