Description
Hug Point Beach is part of Oregon's Hug Point State Recreation Site. Located just a few miles south of Cannon Beach, it is so named because people used to travel along the beach but had to really "hug the point" on this stretch of the coast because the water came so high, even at low tide. I love the shallow tide pool and "beach river" the receding water has carved out in the sand. Although this appears to be a sepia toned photograph because of the overall brown hues, it's actually in full color. We visited on an overcast morning, before the marine fog had a chance to burn off.
