Sand Bar

Welcome to Sand Bar

Nestled at the mouth of the Quinault River, Sand Bar beach in Washington is a serene haven of driftwood-scattered shoreline and mist-kissed tranquility. With its basic yet unassuming facilities, the focus here lies on the raw beauty of the surrounding rainforest landscape and the rhythmic ebb and flow of the Pacific tides. It's a place where time stands still, and the only soundtrack is the soothing melody of the ocean's waves crashing against the sand.
