Del Ray Beach State Recreation Site
About
Del Ray Beach State Recreation Site is a 30-acre park on the Oregon coast, about 1.2 miles from the town of Gearhart. It is a small site, and its appeal lies largely in where it sits: close to several of the area's walking routes. Late summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Seaside show July and August highs of about 65 to 66°F, lows around 53°F, and only about seven wet days a month. Winter is far wetter, with more than 20 wet days a month from November through January and highs in the low 50s. Ridge Path is about a mile away, and the Oregon Coast Trail is roughly 2 miles off. Within a few more miles are the Fort to Sea Trail and the Lewis and Clark Discovery Trail - Oregon Coast Trail.
