One of Ecola State Park's first attractions was a beached whale. In 1806, Capt. William Clark and twelve members of the Corps of Discovery climbed over rocky headlands and fought their way through thick shrubs and trees to get to the whale in what is now Ecola State Park. Today, a paved road from Cannon Beach makes your trek to the park much easier. Winding your way through towering Sitka spruce, you suddenly emerge upon a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. Be sure to have your camera ready. Ecola State Park has both a bounty of beautiful beaches and is rich in history as well. Crescent beach is perfect for picnicking and whale watching, and Indian beach, great for surfing, swimming and soaking in the sun. Hiking is available along the coastal bluffs with great views of Tillamook Rock lighthouse, also known as "Tilly." Nature lovers will have plenty of tide pools to explore here as well as birds and other wildlife to keep their eyes peeled for. And for those who want to spend the night, there are primitive cabins available 1.5 miles from the Indian Beach trailhead.
