Indian Beach in Ecola State Park is a relatively secluded beach that’s accessible via a brief hiking trail. The beach has sandy shores, tide pools and incredible rock formations off in the distance, presenting classic views that have made the Oregon Coast famous.
The beach is especially popular among surfers, and further cementing that legacy, Indian Beach was famously used in the finale of the 1991 Keanu Reeves FBI film Point Break, as a stand-in location for Bells Beach in Australia.
