About Umpqua Sand Camping

Umpqua Sand Camp sites are dispersed along a sandy beach on the Pacific Coast. All sites can only be accessed by 4X4 vehicles. No water is available so campers should bring an ample amount. Campsites are primitive and it's recommended that all campers bring portable toilets and fire pans. Standard sites fit five vehicles and up to 20 people. The two group campsites fit 10 vehicles and 40 campers. [Umpqua Beach 2 Day Use & OHV Staging](http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/siuslaw/recreation/recarea/?recid=42611) is the access point for sand camping sites 31 to 40. [Umpqua Beach 3 Day Use & OHV Staging](http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/siuslaw/recreation/recarea/?recid=42609) is the access point for sand camping sites 41 to 57. Campers with trailers and RVs are asked to enter the sand at the large south-facing access point provided next to the restrooms. Site numbers 33 and 54 are group sites.…
