🏖️ Tseriadun — A day-use beach site at Port Orford in Curry County with a miles-long beach, agate collecting and trout fishing in Garrison Lake
Tseriadun State Recreation Site (pronounced serry-AH-dun) is a state recreation site at Port Orford in Curry County, Oregon. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) says it is popular with visitors stretching their legs on the miles-long beach, agate collectors and photographers who want shots of the offshore rocks and headlands. OPRD also notes there is a reason the community calls it Agate Beach.
Besides the beach, you can fish for rainbow trout and native cutthroat trout in Garrison Lake. The site has hiking trails, picnicking, a viewpoint and flush restrooms, and it covers about 36.6 acres.
There is no campground. Tseriadun is a day-use site, and OPRD does not require a day-use parking permit here. It is one of three state parks in Port Orford; the other two are Port Orford Heads and Paradise Point State Recreation Site.

History
OPRD says Native Americans lived at the site long ago in cedar plank houses and hunted and fished in the mountains and rivers. The department purchased the property in 2003.
In 2007 OPRD added a concrete box culvert that acts as an outlet for Garrison Lake to the ocean. According to the department, the outlet stopped significant erosion of cultural sites and limited flooding for adjacent property owners who live on the lake’s shore.
