5 Things to Do in Cannon Beach during the Summer

Summer in Cannon Beach is known for idyllic conditions, which means you can spend as much time outdoors as you want.

  2. Take a break from the beach and explore area hiking trails. There are paths suited for all ages and skill levels. For a short outing, hike the .4-mile Tillamook Rock Lighthouse Loop.
  3. Take this region’s beauty from the water on a kayak tour with Kayak Tillamook. Your excursion will take place on Nehalem Bay, located about 15 miles south of Cannon Beach.
  4. Make s’mores around a beach bonfire. Fires are permitted as long as there is no burn ban. When building your fire, be sure to keep it away from vegetation and driftwood. There is also a restriction on how large the fire can be.
