Tunnel Beach in Oregon is such a fun stop for anyone exploring the coast. 🐚 You walk through a tunnel about 90 feet long that was built in the 1920s to connect the beaches on each side of Maxwell Point. It opens up to a small, quiet beach surrounded by cliffs where you can explore tide pools, wander the sand, and take beautiful photos. 🌊📸✨ 📍About 9 miles west of Tillamook, Oregon. 🌅 Best to visit at low tide for safe access. #OregonCoast #pacificnorthwest #travel | The PNW Bucket List
