I have been to the beach referenced above. Beautiful location but the water can be dangerous. My experience was similar but at Gold Beach, OR. Camped in the motor home in the overflow lot of the RV park out towards the beach as the wife wanted to be able to hear the waves. It was a nice evening, but woke up in the morning to the sound of helicopter blades close overhead at about 6am.
Bottom line, the Coast Guard was searching for a couple that the taken their small boat out of the jetty area and the boat was swamped by high waves at the opening to the Pacific Ocean. Saw the chopper lift up the body of the wife. Never found the body of the husband. It was a depressing day.
Have been back to Gold Beach but not to same RV park.
