Oregon


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

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!!

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.

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.
