VanLife on the Coast! Rockaway Beach, Oregon On the Road

[@ShemajRagin]

Tillamook was like an enchanted forest. Awesome beach finale with pizza FTW! 😎🍕✌🏿

[@Larry-herenow]

Yes Shemaj , it was the pizza that got my attention !!

[@NoProGoPronto]

You eating that wonderful pizza beachside is reason enough for a "Thumbs UP" 🍕😃👍🏽

[@AdventureVanMan]

+NoProGoPronto Lol, the pizza definitely gets a thumbs up. It was great! 😁👍✌

[@clermontcubby9207]

AdventureVanMan, " Dares to go where Motorhomes Fear" Great video.

[@davet7663]

Thanks for the video Brian. I drove the Oregon coast in the early 90's on a soul searching adventure. I loved it.

[@trevorblake9466]

Absolutely beautiful country! Really enjoying your PacNW vids!

[@christinecortese9973]

Rockaway Beach was the vacation spot for my family during my childhood in the long-ago world of the late 50s. Thanks for taking me back in this video.

[@AdventureVanMan]

+Christine Cortese That's awesome! Glad you enjoyed it! 😁👍✌

[@tomcaldwell5750]

Enjoyed the Stream Train footage, thanks Brian! Safe travels.

[@fortunateadventures3664]

Loved the locomotive 🚂nice to see a lil ☔️ it's been very hot here👅see you on the road,Brian🚌🌲🌲🌳

[@hernanenriquez1804]

Iknow you do, just messing with you, wish this was available in my younger days, I had to do the corporate lifestyle (slave) LOL, I am 70 now and enjoyihg my retirement. Your videos are awesome. Thanks a lot!!!!!!!

[@lizzy2shoes557]

Woohoo! Proud to be 1st to say , "Thanks again, Brian...for another wonderful video!" That initial road had me biting my nails!... 🚙🌲💙

[@LostOnLandAgain]

I always have so much fun riding along with you. Beautiful spot on the beach to enjoy that pizza!

[@mtaylor2901]

Thanks so much for another awesome video! That road out was a nail biter, don't think my hi-top could hang. Enjoyed the beach footage SO much. A peaceful way to start my day! Safe travels ✌️

[@CherylFlynn1]

Hey Brian, glad the AV made it out. More fabulous memories to take away ..... and more to go. Traveling down the beautiful unpaved roads is always a treat. Rockaway beach and the old steam engine were fun to see. The shore is amazingly sparse compared to New England where, to the exclusion of the public, multi million dollar home are built one on top of the other several stories high in order to catch a glimpse of the view. There are a few public beaches left but they aren't big enough for the other 99%. 😂. Thank you for posting another very inspirational video. I'm always reminding myself to purchase things from Amazon from your link and support your channel in gratitude for being able to be part of the AVM journey. Peace out.✌️

[@visualtraveler5263]

Beautiful beach and subset. Would have been great to follow that steam engine train from above, with your drone, for about a quarter of a mile. Missed you on Saturday Brian,.. I hope everything is going good for you. Much fun and peace to you. ✌

[@DestinationOpenRoad]

The Blue Haron French Cheese Company across the road from that Fred Myers is boondocker friendly or at least it used to be, they would let you stay up in back of the store by the farm area and their deli has some of the best food in Tillamook. If you make it to Washington to visit the Olympics, I can tell you a few great pullouts for camping on the upper Dungeness river, it's beautiful up there. Safe travels!

[@SDsailor7]

Very nice places to visit up in Washington state.I liked the town of Olympia. seems like there are coffee shops all over the place.Cheers

[@SDsailor7]

I have also visited Port Townsend, cool little town.Cheers

[@DestinationOpenRoad]

Rob Hernandez Olympia is a great place with the state capital there to visit and yes we have coffee shops on every corner here in Washington:)

[@DestinationOpenRoad]

Rob Hernandez We love Port Townsend it's only 45 min from our place, love it when the old wooden boat show is going on there.

[@statmanstudios378]

Nice job like how you did your video. I was just there did a clip around the lake in Rockaway

[@halliadams5987]

Hey Brian! Great vid as always.😊 Very nice beach/water views. I love the scenic views when you use the drone. Btw, how was the pizza? Take care!!!!

[@vantheman3857]

Talking to your van always works ! That spot was insanely cool. Then beach and pizza. Whaaaat !?! There's an upper crust pizza in Santa Cruz too right when you come into town from Davenport wonder if it's related. Gosh, last vid I mentioned how it looked like moss landing area and this beach town reminds me of Davenport. I knew and heard this, but your videos really make me feel like I'm right there with you. Thanks once again buddy for the ride. ✌

[@kristasir-louis1918]

Beautiful place & nice video work ;)

[@DavidStaggs]

Now that was a sunset!!

[@Emma-3010]

closing sunset scene - breathtakingly beautiful! Thanks, Brian!

[@bryantford3054]

Love the Oregon coast. Could really use some cool rainy weather myself. Thanks for the video, Brian.

[@kevinwhittier2626]

Wow.. What a choice spot. Lucky you didn't get any rain or meet anyone on the way in or out on those narrow roads. Really enjoy your videos. Many thanks for all your time and effort and sharing these great spots.

[@elflordsjourneys]

Cannon Beach is one of the best on the coast, be sure to take a long walk in both directions. 😀✌

[@myblessedhope3]

What a wonderful little town! Very charming. I'm glad you stopped and enjoyed it's "flavor" (especially the pizza flavor:) Having a sunny day is great, but I noticed how the gray skies brought out the gorgeous blue green of the water. We are big train fans around here and would have had to ride that train! Enjoyed the video very much. Thanks for sharing it.

[@C-TOS]

Thanks for sharing. That region of the US is breathtaking.

[@TheRaven757]

Simply beautiful.

[@nancywalton55]

Glad to see you made it out ok! Love this video but they're never long enough. I'm lovin' your journey through Oregon, a place I've always wanted to visit. Thanks for sharing ... ♡

[@valeried4504]

Beautiful country thanks for sharing with me....

[@wesallen4228]

Very nice area . The ending sunset I had to stop and hold to enjoy alittle longer. very beautiful.

[@joehall7869]

It's ok to be number 2 to comment on you good video. I love steam engines. Have fun.

[@ShemajRagin]

Oh! I just noticed you touched up your logo! Nice work!!!!! ✨💥👍🏿

[@TheDUNLOP6]

Wow beautiful stop and sunset!

[@TheGlampingGuys]

Wow, I think this place was one of your best finds. Cool being able to see an old school locomotive while chilling at Rockaway Beach. Love the cute flowers in the flip flop someone left on the picnic table. They must have known you where coming. LOL! Yummy looking pizza, and as always great drone flyover shots. Nice!

[@hbuzzell]

Thank you for the awesome video. So many beautiful places, cannot wait to make it to Oregon!

[@TheSlotHeads]

Wow, rain in Tillamook ... its been staying high and dry in Eugene. I guess the coast gets it even in the dry season. Now I've got that Ramone's song in my head...Rock...Rock...Rockaway beach... hehehehe

[@j.rdirtyfivethirty1673]

Another awesome video. Thx for taking us on the trip

[@davidletcher2048]

Nice beach!

[@barb736]

[@MrJpat88]

Great video Brian! Almost wouldn't recognize Rockaway Beach if it wasn't raining:) OR coast is awesome looks like you're having a great time:) Just keeps getting better more north you go, hope we getbto see you up here in the Olympic Peninsula!

[@AdventureVanMan]

[@4Score747]

Brian I love your positivity! Also, I as many others were worried about you for a day or so! And you were just down enjoying your peace and quiet!! LOL! FRED MEYER! I worked at the one in Klamath Falls for 18 years. Glad your alright. No sign of Bigfoot yet? How awesome to see that old Steam Engine train! Good things come to good people. Like those flowers left for you...Peace brother! 🦋 🦋

[@cmonster6]

Thanks for the ride brother,nothing like taking a trip and never leaving the farm

[@glennrubel4326]

Great way to beat the heat.

[@jerryvelez-cedeno1441]

very nice... the "train" BONUS !!! 👍✌

[@Larry-herenow]

Great video Brian. It's time I re-visited the Oregon coast. My last visit was some time in the 60's and I think it has more appeal now.

[@pamalapeterson5352]

Been to Rockaway Beach many times, miss Oregon! Cannon Beach was also a favorite! Thank you for sharing!

[@GarPic]

Love the 🚂 and you got to see it running thank you for your videos God Bless Safe Travels

[@TrevorMarty69]

Love that. I was nervous for you getting out, but I'm glad to see you made it.

[@LaramieJim]

Adventure Van super macho machine. Steam locomotive cool!

[@sonddaddy]

Got to love an older van. No worries about the paint job!

[@whisperingeaglelanders2339]

You are so nice. I love your videos! Are those tree branches scratching your van?? Soooo pretty! Oh that train car is adorable. Wow, I really like Oregon my goodness an up close shot of the train engine! That water is amazing!! I just love those little flowers on your table, the whole set up is incredible👙

[@daredare890]

Have not seen ya in Astoria area yet. Hope to do a meet and greet if your paths cross. Thank you for another great vlog.

[@TommyboyGTP]

Wow that looks like an awesome place, and steam locomotives doing scenic tours are the best!

[@chuckergm]

Once again....just great.

[@darkbluematter1753]

Fantastic footage at the beach. So beautiful!

[@janicepeck4828]

Awesome vid of train. WOW WHAT A VIEW ON ROCK A WAY BEACH.Awesome looking pizza! First gear got you out of that very narrow campsite ,such a beautiful cove of water.

[@susanstrickland6774]

Excellent, so much in a short amt of time. Ty. 😊👍

[@sylviajones3249]

Excellent video!

[@kiwivanman9035]

Kiwi Vanman Great driving Brian, you will do well in New Zealand, a lot of places like this by the rivers and lakes, beautiful. William

[@lynnadams5816]

What a wonderful way to spend the day, enjoying the scene of the ocean. Your pizza looked really good. I love the ocean. I grew up in a little place called Passe a Grille beach in St Petersburg Florida.

[@carlmichaelbeadle7614]

As always, awesome video

[@AdventureVanMan]

+Carl Michael Beadle Thank you, I appreciate it! 😁👍✌

[@pelagicproperties]

Rockaway beach is awesome!

[@coolcatcarolena4951]

Love Oregon. Hope you make it to Mt. Hood. There's a cool resort at the top where you can ski (I was there in June and there was plenty of snow at the top). And it wasn't there when I was last there, but there's a tiny house village somewhere in the mountain. Safe travels!

[@Oceangirl15]

Gorgeous sunset!!!

[@raededmon2581]

Glad to know there are other folk who verbally "encourage" their vehicles when in tight spots...

[@AdventureVanMan]

+Rae Dedmon Lol 😁👍

[@Pamela-ro8vh]

Wow, gorgeous area & on point filming/editing.

[@lonekazoo]

I just made that same trip last week. We also enjoyed Seaside and Astoria. Farther north, if you cross the Columbia to Long Beach, Washington, you can drive on the beach, which is one of the longest in the world.

[@daredare890]

Watch the tide Brian. super nice beach in washington.

[@bradleybam]

wicked pizza and sunset brian.

[@teresap.5991]

Bryan, this video brought back such wonderful memories of our trip out west. Loving every minute of it so thank you. The pizza though wow that's killing me. There was an upper crust pizza in key West when we were there several years ago and it was the best pizza around some of the best pizza I ever had.

[@BlaneysChannel]

Winch my friend. I put a 12,000 lb winch on my Class C. It might look crazy but I'll feel much more confident in rough places. Oregon looks really nice.

[@bdawg7213]

Glad you made it outta there Brian. Awesome footage. What's with the dude on the hoverboard??? LOL Safe travels!

[@stephenolaughlin6595]

No doubt you would have been stuck. Only traction would have been tree limbs on the top & sides of van. Beautiful place though. Love that ocean spot. Thanks for sharing 👍🚐

[@BeFree8]

Thanks for sharing some nice spots there.

[@paulhunter546]

Awesome sunset !

[@rhondawaldron]

Beautiful its on my Bucket list. I only have 3 states left in the lower 48. Oregon, Washington and Kansas.

[@liamjoker6120]

cool Rockaway beach! like the Ramones song

[@billyemartin2975]

another great vid!

[@AdventureVanMan]

+Billye Martin Thank you👍✌

[@eugenemccarthy7880]

I live in Rockaway. I moved here a year and a half ago absolutely love it! Great area with tons of outdoor activities

[@judycarey9051]

Love the seashore.

[@geico1975]

Neat town:)

[@jamesietoo]

I am the hello man... Are you ready.... Well here we go then..... Helllooooooo😇

[@FrankGreenway]

I didn't realize Oregon had a coast line. I'm terrible with geography. Another thing to add to the bucket list. Thanks again for sharing your experiences Brian. I'm hoping someday to meet you and others in the camping/vanning community. Get to the East coast hit me up. I will show you around Savannah Georgia and my favorite Tybee island GA.

[@AdventureVanMan]

+Frank my best friend is Chewy I am learning a lot about our geography in my travels. I didn't know much before I hit the road. 😁👍✌

[@maurelius57]

Love the train!!!

[@sail38n]

Hi Brian, Thank you for all your videos.. Met a friend of yours in Santa Cruz yesterday. Mike with a 4wd Astro and a little dog named Buster. I am heading for Coos Bay in the next few days with my work in progress. It is a 2002 Express Extended that I have been building. Like you I got registered in SD. Easy..

[@CrankyBubushka]

It looks beautiful

[@kennysart]

We just went through Rockaway Beach a couple of times last week, did some camping in the Nehalem bay state park. I love Oregon, been a resident for 69 years.

[@AdventureVanMan]

+kennysart Beautiful area! 👍✌

[@vannerdherd]

looked like some awesome pie!

[@RangerDave1959]

On up north on 101 don't miss Astoria. They have a great maritime museum. Be sure to checkout the Astoria column as well.

[@GilbertNichols]

Loving the adventures, man! I would love to take a ride on that train.

[@fernwehforevertearofjoy409]

As usual, absolutely awesome share, Brian!!👍 I 💓 old trains 🚂🚃and would stop in Rockaway for that in itself. If I may ask.....what cameras do you use and what is your favorite editing software? JOY! 💚

[@ChiefinGuam]

I was sure that when you started driving out of that camp spot someone would be coming down. LOL

[@HighSpeedNoDrag]

I recall a few Pizza Places back in the day, Take out or Delivery and the very Best.

[@mariloh683]

The twin rocks remind me of Etretat in France, a famous ocean sight for painters.

[@wingnutbert9685]

Dude, you need to come to BC. Looks just like Oregon/ Wash. State. Not as many free spots but there are some Forest Service campsites that are free, off in the woods. In BC we have everything from ocean beach to rain forest to high mountain to desert. It's just amazing.
