A walk in Cannon Beach
Hemlock Street runs parallel to the beach, so every block has a sand access. Walk one, come back the other. Haystack Rock without the summer crowds. The season the locals actually prefer, when the storms roll in and the town is yours.

On the map
FOG: Fog of War Walking Map starts with Cannon Beach under fog and clears it only where you physically walk. In a town this size the downtown comes out of the dark in whole blocks in an afternoon, and it stays cleared. No start button, no workout to end: it runs with the app closed and the screen off, and it needs no signal.
Somewhere to eat afterwards is on the Cannon Beach festival page.
