Bailey Beach

Bailey Beach is a lonely stretch of soft gentle sand that is a favorite for a relaxing stroll. It is not unusual to walk the three miles and not see a single person. The beach is bordered by the shear cliffs of Otter Point on the north and the Rogue River on the south. On a clear day, it is possible to see the light from the Cape Blanco Lighthouse to the north. During low tides, it is a favorite of the locals to dig for razor clams.
Access to Bailey Beach is easy, with parking off the Old Coast Road just north of the Rogue River Jetty, at the gravel parking lot a mile north, or at Otter Point Park. Dogs are welcomed. 4-wheel drive access is allowed by licensed vehicles from the south.

USGA maps label this Barley Beach which is incorrect according to the locals.
