What campers say

Tillicum Beach Campground sits directly above a wide, sandy beach with easy stair/paved access and regular ocean views and sunsets. Sites are generally well‑maintained, angled for semi‑privacy, and a mix of electric/water or rustic sites; space for very large rigs is limited. Restrooms are reported clean with flush toilets, but there are no showers and no dump station, so plan accordingly. Beachfront spots can be small or muddy and tend to be quieter, while sites nearer the highway experience noticeable traffic noise. Hosts are consistently described as friendly. The campground offers both reservations and first‑come‑first‑served sites.

📖 About This Campground

Tillicum Beach Campground is popular for many reasons, but the number one and most obvious is its location right on the beach. Campers are lulled to sleep by the sound of the ocean waves, then wake to sweeping views of the Pacific. The campground offers an ideal location for whale watching. Most campsites have beachfront views, and sunsets are not to be missed. Fishing, swimming and playing in the sand are the campground's most popular activities.
The campground offers several single-family campsites, a few of which have both electric and water hookups. Sites with hookups are not on the waterfront. Due to the campground's popularity, it's a good idea to make reservations in advance. Each site is equipped with a picnic table and campfire ring. Flush toilets and drinking water are provided but there are no showers.
The coastal campground lies a couple miles south of where the Alsea River meets the Pacific Ocean. Tillicum is perfectly perched on the sandy beach yet it still offers some shade. The campground offers views of both the ocean and the Coastal Range.
Campers enjoy Tillicum for its expansive sandy beach. Surfers and swimmers play in the waves just off-shore. Children love building sandcastles on the beach. Walking along the beach is a great way to explore the area. Cape Perpetua is 6 miles south, where visitors can wander through old-growth Sitka spruce, experience the crashing surf, investigate tide pools, whale watch or take a guided hike. Waldport, just 4 miles north, provides access to fishing, crabbing, clamming and shrimping in the Alsea Bay and River.
