Online Highways Home > Oregon > Rockaway Beach Rockaway Beach is located along Highway 101 overlooking the Pacific Ocean. This small beachfront community is also situated north of Tillamook, between Garibaldi and Wheeler. Originating in the 1920's by the Rockaway Beach Company as a summer vacation spot for Portlanders, Rockaway now plays that role for visitors from around the country. Rockaway post office was established March 22, 1911, with F. P. Miller, first postmaster. For many years the simple form "Rockaway" sufficed but about 1987 it was changed to the more stylish "Rockaway Beach." A community of 1,200 year-round residents, the small coastal town is the center of activity for north Tillamook County, and has seven miles of white sandy beach and windswept dunes accessible from the city wayside in the center of town. Twin Rocks, located one mile south of Rockaway on US Hwy 101, was named for two large sea stacks more than 100 feet high in the Pacific Ocean just beyond low tide line. There is also a Rockaway Beach, Missouri. Plan your vacation to the Pacific Northwest with a packet of information in the mail and you may win a $200 gift certificate courtesy of our sponsors.
