What are the funnest, best and cheapest camp sites along the coasts of Washington, Oregon and California?
I'm looking for campsites along the coasts of Washington, Oregon and California that are in good locations and that are not too expensive. I'll be going during the summer so I'de also need to know if reservations are required.
I'de love campsites that have beach access, that are full of fun people (mostly teenagers and young adults) to meet and that are near fun places to visit. Please let me know about any experiences, both good and bad, you have had. Thanks!
I'm not sure if it's still open but my wife & I spent several nights at Orick, CA on a spit of land overlooking the ocean. It was wonderful with the black sand beaches. The place was run by the federal government and there were no facilities except for a porta-potti and dumpster for trash.
We stayed while we explored the Redwood National Park, home of the largest redwoods and the Roosevelt Elk. This is a strain of elk named after Teddy Roosevelt and roam wild amongst the trees.
Give it a try, enjoy.
