In this video we're going to show you some beaches and overviews near Portland that
you're going to want to check out. I can hear the ocean but I can't see it--not at all
Hey you guys!
Thanks for joining us on another journey. Today we're in Oregon we're doing a beach tour.
I got my buddy Robert from when I was a kid we've known each other since I was 16.
Hell of a long time. If you're new to the channel, this is April...that's Chris. So sit back, relax and enjoy the journey!
what'd you say? i believe these are called seal rocks--ohhh--deaf man
this is the Devil's Punchbowl it's low tide
this park features prominently in The Goonies along with locations in Astoria and Cannon Beach
the Fratelli family's hideout the lighthouse lounge was temporarily constructed
at Ecola Point and Mikey used the rocky coastline here to gain clues
to the location of One-Eyed Willy's treasure and the school carnival scene in Kindergarten
Cop was filmed next to this parking lot overlooking the ocean yeah you can see small
swells coming right here but i think the ... is coming in it's still a pretty big swell
no visit to Oregon's beaches is complete without a stop in at Ecola State Park about an hour west
of Portland even the entrance road is scenic winding you through all the Sitka spruce
the panoramic views that Ecola Point are famous so breathtaking they even have picnic tables there
and you can go down to Indian Beach which has tide pools that you can explore
at the right time of day where are we at Robert? we're at Ecola State Park
back last time we were here smart ass son-in-law
was playing the theme song to Jurassic Park as we were driving through here
welcome to Jurassic Park it's like Jesus Christ coming from the back
right it definitely feels like it though
most people that visit are like wow yeah it's so green and lush it's so trippy i remember the
first time i came out here we we actually saw like four elk and i'd never seen an elk before
and they're huge and we walked up and this guy's like get the [ __ ] in your car you idiots
yeah in fact the guy died last winter experienced hunter wounded an elk and
then he went to get it and put it out misery and jumped up and it killed him oh my god yeah
gorged him and he'd been hunting his whole life so you know it wasn't like some rookie right
right that just shows the one more adrenaline you get the animal was dying laying down oh yeah
and then when he approached it it jumped up for the adrenaline and charged him
so i was kind of sad they both died he killed the elk and the elk killed him. yeah
we're now going into the quaint little village of Cannon Beach this is called shopping
it's like St. Augustine with more tourists it gets a little bit touristed-out right here
and Oregon for the most part has been pretty sequestered till now so is it just now finally
starting now we're all in the in a low dangerous very low percentile of cases and everything so
what happens in November when flu season comes back--oh he's playing music--i don't know. i can
hear the ocean but i can't see it not at all look at this it's like two o'clock in the afternoon
where's the ocean??
Cannon Beach is a very popular place along the Oregon Coast it's about an hour and a
half west of Portland and it's popular for that Haystack Rock as with many of Oregon's beaches
tide-pooling is a lot of fun to do there at the right time of day
sometimes you have so much fog you can't see anything
yeah we had so much fog when we were there it broke just long enough for us to see
Haystack Rock just keep in mind that parking is uh a little difficult to find in the uh
small town of Cannon Beach i don't even know if you can see the Haystack or not
close enough--it's closing up again right it's fogging up anyway you remember in the
movie Goonies when the pirate ship came out this is Haystack Rock
can you tell Wayne's a little obsessed with Goonies just a little
they won't let you go to the Goonies house anymore kind of upset about that in Astoria
if you're on the Oregon coastline you know you got to go check out the Tillamook
cheese factory gonna go get some burgers and some cheddar cheese not just cheese factory
Tillamook factory right she wants ice cream yeah all right what you got
i got a bagel sandwich bagel turkey tomato cheese lettuce and some double cheeseburger myself
cookies and cream peaches and cream and caramel butter pecan that cheeseburger
i was just expecting like a regular old cheeseburger but honestly if you're in the
area stop in to get the cheeseburger it's locally grown beef super fresh
cheese was amazing and fresh cut french fries try the cheese curds as well
watch your poop-steps there's a lot of poop steps what is that i don't know
horse horse trails yeah that could be camel poop that's good for you
this Cape Kiwanda it has a cool monolith rock that protects the cape
it's considered the "other Haystack Rock" there's beautiful beautiful sandy beaches yes
well you don't have to worry about rocks out here right except for the big one
yeah where these guys are at are sandy bottoms oh yeah perfect for a goofy-foot
whoa are we sinking or what are we doing fat people on sliding sand--on a little log!
