Indian Beach

A small cove framed by forest in Ecola State Park, known on the North Coast for surfing and tide pools.

Indian Beach lies in the northern section of Ecola State Park. Spruce-covered headlands flank both sides of the small cove, and rocks scattered offshore give it a raw, untouched feel. It is a popular surf spot on the North Coast, and at low tide the rocks at the northern end reveal tide pools to explore. The film Twilight was shot here. The beach is about a 5-minute drive from Ecola Point, or a 2.5 km walk along the coastal trail. Parking is included with the park day pass.
