Del Rey Beach State Recreation Site

Wide open spaces. Just find your own little space and call it yours. We didn't experience anyone speeding down the beach but still be cautious with kids. Kids had a blast. There's just something about being able to drive on the beach.

This place spans roughly 14.6 miles that you can actually drive your vehicle on. If you plan to do this, please be aware of how to drive in sand. Air tires down, don’t park where your vehicle starts to sink, watch out for obstacles, people and animals. Speed limit is 25mph but I usually go slower to enjoy the view. During high tide the water comes up high enough that portions of the beach are impassable by car. Recommend 4x4 with recovery straps and shovels. If you get stuck most people will stop to assist you and their are also the Son’s of Beaches that roam the area to help stuck vehicles. Aside from that it’s a wonderful place to check out the ocean and have a nice little fire. Be careful in the water and know your limits. Also check out the ship wreck down by Fort Stevens. Cheers and have fun

Great place to get out and drive the beach! East main road access to the beach. Drop it in 4hi. Have some fun. Drove up the beach passed some wild sea lions just hanging out on the beach. Not too crowded either. Honestly I didn’t even know you could drive on Oregon beaches so it was a pleasant surprise.

A beautiful beach. Usually not very busy. Nice place to play in any season. Fun in the summer to relax and play. It is important to stay alert for cars because sometimes people drive recklessly fast and don't seem to be watching for children or pets.

We had a family wedding at Del Ray Beach just north of Seaside. It's a great place to go. You are allowed to drive on the beach have fires and have a good time!

A beautiful secluded beach with great access (especially if you have four wheel drive). Lots of shells for the kids to find and clean beaches to play in. We were even treated to a decaying California sea lion that washed up recently. I mean really, you can't make that sort of stuff up. Sorry, no pics of that.

The better of the beaches near seaside. You can actually drive on this beach which is way nicer then lugging your stuff across the beach.

Del ray is ALWAYS a fav of my families. We had a nice bonfire on the beach, watched the sunset. Loveeeeee del ray :)

This is a favorite spot to take our dogs. You are also allowed to drive on the beach. Great spot!

So beautiful, the water was warm and that's not normal for the Oregon coast. And there's sand dallors all over the place. Easy access just drive on the beach and park you can see your car.

Such a great beach. The fact that you can drive on it is amazing! Such a pretty beach also. Tons of sand dollars all over. Great place to look for shells!

Yes you can drive on the beach. 4*4 recommendation here. Nice long section of Oregon beach near Seaside Oregon.

Beautiful place to go and enjoy the beach without having to worry about parking cause you can drive on the beach. Absolutely beautiful there at every hour of the day!!!

A beautiful beach, with soft sand, with vastly fewer people than you'll find at Seaside, and it's only a couple of miles further North.

How cool and beautiful!!! Got to drive 10 miles on the beach!!! Breathtaking!!!

Love riding my Rad Rover down the beach.

Easy access to drive on beach. Kid friendly. Lots of space.

Great beach to drive on, fly kites or let the dog play! Water was gorgeous.

Such a fun drive on beach! We didn't come prepared enough so we spent only a little bit of time there 😭

Great ocean drive with about 100 elk walking on beach and grassy dune area
