About This Beach
Ruby Beach is a stunningly beautiful, rugged Pacific Northwest beach characterized by dramatic sea stacks, abundant driftwood, and rocky shores. While easily accessible from a nearby parking lot, visitors should be prepared for a short, slightly challenging walk across driftwood to reach the water's edge. Restrooms are available, but amenities are otherwise limited, making it a haven for nature lovers seeking a more wild and scenic experience.
