This towering monolith is one of the tallest in the world. Rising 235 feet and sitting off the sandy strip of Cannon Beach, the mini-island is a product of one of the Earth's largest lava flows. A refuge for tide pool dwellers and winged creatures, treading lightly about the barnacled rocks is permitted, but any other climbing or hiking is completely outlawed. The Haystack's neighboring rock formations, the Needles, rest nearby.

  • Breathtaking scenery, friendly locals, great food and brew pubs.
  • Cool rainy weather, a bit pricey.

“Located in Cannon Beach Oregon, around 100 miles from Portland. Many formations like this along the coast, with Haystack being one of the larger. Frequent fog and rain often obscure the rocks from view. July and August are best bets for seeing the best the coast has to offer. Even then, weather can be cool and windy. ”
