Dr. Leisure's Top Ten Nude Beaches (clothing optional) for 2001 Sauvie Island's North end on the Columbia River


From Portland, go 10 miles northwest on US 30. Turn right over Sauvie Island bridge. Buy a parking pass at the store at the bottom of the bridge, then continue beyond the store for 1.8 miles. Turn right on Reeder Road and go 10.7 miles until it becomes gravel (passing Reeder Beach and Walton Beach, both clothing required.). About 0.3 miles on the gravel road, watch for signs on the right, "Collins Beach, Clothing Optional Area, Nudity on Beach Only."? (WG page 100)

My friend Alison is having a croquet party on Sunday on Sauvie Island. I don't think that it's on this beach though.

Happy Birthday Alison!
