Neskowin is a small coastal village in Oregon located between Pacific City and Lincoln City. This kitesurf spot offers a wild and isolated beach bordered by coastal forests, with Proposal Rock as its iconic landmark. The beach is exposed to North Pacific swells and benefits from reliable thermal winds in summer. The atmosphere is calm and preserved, far from tourist crowds, making it a favorite spot for local riders.
