Agate Beach State Recreation Site is a state park between Newport and Agate Beach in Lincoln County in the U.S. state of Oregon. It is administered by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department.[2]
Lying between new and old U.S. Highway 101, the 18.48acres park offers beach access via a path from the parking lot through a tunnel under the old highway.[2] Amenities include restrooms and a place to fish, surf, and dig for razor clams.[2] The site also has picnic tables, and activities on its beach may include kite flying, agate hunting, birdwatching, and photography.[3]
Created in 1969 from land bought from the Lincoln County Development Company, the park is open year-round. About 190,000 people visit the park each year.[2]
