We had a short drive up the coast to Beverly Beach. This massive State Park campground is tucked in a dense forest. There's easy beach access via a path under the Hwy 101 bridge.

Pelican Brewing Company
Pelican Brewing has been on our bucket list for some time & we planned on visiting it as we moved up the coast. But we got impatient, so we hopped into the car and figured this was a good excuse for a little auto touring to Pacific City. The brewpub did not disappoint — an enjoyable setting right on the beach.
