Nehalem Beach

Nehalem Beach is a W-facing beach break in Brighton, Oregon, United States. It picks up swell from S to NNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 38% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the E: light winds or E breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while W onshores chop it up.
