- Many people enjoy the company of a well fitting hat (it can get very windy so make sure it fits well or this might be a hat chasing explorience!)
- Sturdy outdoor footwear (Avoid open-topped rubber boots as they can fill with water)
- Gloves for cold-sensitive hands
- A robust bag for your coastal treasures
- Optional: snacks, beverages, or a well-behaved pup to share the fun!
Beach Safety Tips
Heads Up, Beachcombers! 🌊🚨 The Oregon Coast is a beauty, but its climate can be a bit of a wild card. So, let's keep it safe and sensational with a few pro tips:
1. Always Face the Ocean: Those waves can be sneaky! Always keep an eye on the water to be aware of any sudden changes.
2. Beware of Beach Logs and Debris: It may look stable, but driftwood and other beach debris can shift unexpectedly. Better safe than sorry!
3. Keep Kiddos and Furry Friends Close: Whether it's your mini-me or your four-legged family member, always keep them close. You never know when rogue sneaker wave conditions might appear.
Enjoy your beachcombing, but safety first, treasures later! 🌊🔍💎
