🌊⛰️ Cape Kiwanda, Oregon ⛰️🌊 Known for its towering sand dune, dramatic cliffs, and powerful waves, Cape Kiwanda is one of the only places on the Oregon Coast where you can actually hike a massive sand dune straight to the ocean. It’s a favorite for photographers, surfers, and sunset lovers — just be sure to stay off the unstable sandstone cliffs for safety. #oregoncoast #pnwhiking #oregonlife | Compass Outdoors

Very dangerous high surf and waves today. View from a safe distance. This video clip shows waves breaking over the top of Cape Kiwanda. Oceanside Wayside is now closed because the high surf is entering the parking area. | Oregon State Parks

Cape Kiwanda State Natural Area, Pacific City, Oregon is part of the Three Capes Scenic Route, along with Cape Meares and Cape Lookout. Cape Kiwanda is the smallest of all three, but also the most geological interesting of them. It is made up of sandstone and massive sand dunes that dominate the landscape. Climbing the 240 feet tall sand dunes offer jaw dropping panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean. Please respect boundaries and enjoy responsibly. #whatcannaturedoforyou #tillamookcoast #oregonco
