Beach Stone Hike down a long path and descend a staircase to the beach, walk south several hundred yards. DO NOT attempt this journey at high tide, or with high tide coming in! This location is officially designated the Devil's Punchbowl State Natural Area. We are on the beach right below the village of Otter Crest, and just north of the Devil's Punchbowl. In the larger scale, we are north of Newport and south of Depoe Bay. The legendary Captain Cook sighted the high cape just two miles north of here in March of 1778.
