Hi All

The family and I are heading down to Sea Side Oregon next month and I would like to know what are some of the more popular beaches for buggying? or is it just the main beach in Sea side?

Thanks

Grant

Got it thanks. Do people generaly park on the south end or the north and do the have a problem with one taking you jeep on the beach?

Usually north side sometimes up as far as 2miles up
No problems with jeeps don't need 4x4 just keep an eye on the tide ;)

Yep, jeeps are totally ok. And just park next to the silver dodge ram pickup or the black jimmy/s-blazer towing the trailer. ;-) Enjoy, this place is awesome!!

Thanks Guys

I have a silver Lifted Jeep on 37" wheels. I'll be the nubie who doesnt know what he's doing.

That jeep sounds sweet, Im a jeep fan. Repost some more as the time comes around so we know when to look for you. Theres always many friendly faces around here who can help out if you have any questions.

Glad you asked the question, Grant as I was about to do the same. I grew up going to the Oregon coast all the time but I'm not sure I actually have been to Sunset. Going to try to hit it this Sunday. Maybe we'll be the newbies who don't know what they're doing.

Good to hear you will get to Seaside soon Grant !

Going there is a huge step in education. Be sure and look at the others buggies and get info from them. The Sunset Crew are the folks we all look up to ! G.P. is where we have to ride but Seaside is where we all wish to ride ! We'll make sure you have a few kites !

See you tomorrow !

it's looking good for this weekend at Ft. Stevens or Sunset

its looking good for saturday... 8-17 sunny and clear... but high tide is at 2pm (+5).. low tied is at 8 (-1) then the 8p low tide is medium (3). looks like light winds on sunday. today was a sunny 25-28 in manzanita! i will likely stay down here for the weekend due to mothers day but plan to be up next weekend for the monthly "meet up".

Monthly meet up next week end- that's my girlfriends B-day weekend and she wants to go to the beach anyway. I still might cruise out Sunday and see if there's enough to fly.
