Along the North Jetty (& Honeyman State Park)
A view of the Jetty boulders, looking across the river to the South Jetty and Honeyman State Park.
Honeyman comprises the southern shore of the Siuslaw River and is the gateway to the 40-mile-long Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area.
Various clear water lakes are found there, sitting in the middle of the enormous, sometimes towering dunes. Campgrounds abound, with 50 sites with full hook-ups, 91 with water and electricity and 237 primitive tent/RV sites – all with fireplaces and other amenities.
There’s also plenty of surfing to be done here, although you have to head through the park access and prove you’re heading to the northern area (south jetty) to avoid the state park charges.
Nearby businesses on 101 provide ATV’s for your dune amusement.
