Spot Guide
Cannon Beach is a classic Pacific Northwest beach break offering consistent, mellow waves that peel across a wide sandy bottom, making it an ideal spot for beginners and intermediate surfers. The iconic Haystack Rock formations provide a scenic backdrop and create interesting wave dynamics near the headland. The exposed eastward-facing beach picks up solid autumn and winter swells while maintaining accessibility and forgiving conditions most of the year.
