Manhattan Beach State Recreation Site at Rockaway Beach

Manhattan Beach State Recreation Site is a beautiful park along Highway 101 two miles north of Rockaway Beach City. This is a small forested area with shore pines, salal, huckleberries, and blackberries.

Though the park is close to the busy highway, it is a quiet solitude spot offering secluded escape and providing easy access to Nedona Beach. Nedona Beach extends south from the mouth of the Nehalem River on the north to Rockaway Beach.
