Indian Beach is a scenic sandy beach break on the northern Oregon coast that catches consistent swell from Pacific storm systems. The ENE-facing beach creates a natural amphitheater of waves that work best during autumn and winter swells, offering fun, peeling waves suited for surfers looking to progress beyond beginner level. The sheltered cove provides relatively protected conditions compared to more exposed Oregon breaks, making it an excellent option when bigger Atlantic storms pump neighboring coastlines.
