Forming part of the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor, Lone Ranch Beach is located just 4.5 miles from Brookings. The beach is long and wide, forming a crescent of soft sand along the edge of the water and offering excellent views of several sea stacks. If you visit during the low tide you will find many easily-accessible tidal pools filled with interesting aquatic creatures – children can look out for hermit crabs, shore crabs and spiny urchins. You can bring along a picnic to enjoy at one of the picnic tables which are perfectly positioned right alongside the beach. There is a parking area and a paved accessible pathway to the beach.
