The Museum of the North Beach is a charming little museum located between Moclips and Pacific Beach. It has been a hidden gem for many visitors who have passed by over the years. Although small, the museum offers a fascinating collection of artifacts and displays that showcase the history of the area over the last 150 years. Guests often express surprise at the depth of information available, with knowledgeable volunteers providing insights and answering questions about the exhibits. The museum features a unique collection of items found on local beaches, including debris from Japan that washed ashore after the tsunami over a decade ago. Visitors are encouraged to sign in and make a donation, which goes towards future expansions, as plans are in place for a larger facility nearby. Open only on weekends, the museum also includes a gift shop where guests can purchase souvenirs. Those who stop by often leave with new knowledge and appreciation for the rich history of the North Beach region, making it a worthwhile visit for anyone traveling along Highway 109.
33 years ago my wife and I had our honeymoon in the Red Caboose we can’t wait for it to get set up again, great memories.

This place was garbage! It's literally a museum of beach trash and I learned a ton about garbage, tsunamis, and beach architecture. The owner showed me his big secret whalebone in the back room.
