Nice beach for hunting sea glass
A long stretch of beach with a lot of people searching for "sea glass". Small pieces can easily be found among the rocks washed up on shore. There's a small parking lot on the North end of the beach along with a few porta potties. My family actually parked in a lot further North in the Fort Worden State Park and walked down the beach about 1 mile.

Nice walk along the beach but parking horrible
Okay, this is a popular spot because people love to come to collect the little glass pieces along the beach. There is an easy but rocky walk along the beach that roundtrip would be about 6 miles. Although flat, it can be tiring walking on the rocks. That said, it is beautiful but the main knock I have is the parking is very limited so be prepared to press your luck. When we got there, we happened upon someone leaving and got one. My brother could not get a spot while circling around for about an hour and finally went to park somewhere else being not he verge of giving up. It is hit or miss. They do have portable toilets there that are useable which was nice since the toilets were closed.

Nice beach, but nasty neighbors
This beach is very nice, however, watch where you park. The neighbors are foul mouthed, and emphatic about not parking within an inch of their property. Apparently, there has been a lot of issues, but the filthy language from an owner put a damper on our visit...and they don't care. Oh, and watch for off-leash dogs. Our on-leash dog was attacked.
