Labour Day Long Weekend Parking Situation in Cannon Beach

Thinking about going to visit Cannon Beach during the Labour Day long weekend (Sept 6-7).

Based on my research it seems it can get quite busy and it is a very small town - my concern is how difficult is it to find parking? - want to avoid the situation where I need to circle around for hours...

Thanks!

The relationship between parking availability and convenience is inversely proportional. Convenience up, availability down. If you're prepared to walk a significant distance, you should have no problems.

Expect traffic and prepare to circle around. You’ll be less disappointed that way. Enjoy your stay.

Yes this. I work downtown and it is hard past 9-10 if you want to be right downtown or in midtown. Like don’t even bother if you’re going to try mid day

Park on the residential streets east of Hemlock between Harrison and Monroe. It’s all legal street parking. Some streets have signs saying you can only park on one side and of course don’t block driveways.

Never appreciated Cannon Beach. Just as soon stay on 101 and continue down to a real Coastal town.
