Large Breaking Waves, April 22

Beach goers are being warned to watch out for large breaking waves along the Oregon Coast. The U.S. Coast Guard dispatched helicopters Sunday, April 20, to a report of people being swept off a North Oregon Coast beach near Neskowin. A sizeable wave reportedly hit the beach and pulled two individuals out to sea. However, that could not be confirmed. Still, a search is a standard response, according to a spokesperson for the USCG. Nothing was found and there have been no reports of anyone missing. At about 10:15 p.m., 15 to 20-foot swells were being report near Cascade Head, north of Lincoln City, on the Central Coast.
