Cape Elizabeth
Edit SpotAbout
Do not trespass. Respect the Quinault Nation as you would when going to any other country. They used to give day permits but because of disrespect the beaches are now closed.
Additional Info:
Be careful because the surrounding land is tribal land...park your car accordingly. Also you can use satelite photos (flashearth.com) to figure out exactly how to get there. This spot has been protected and hidden for years...but no more secrets. Seek and ye shall find.
