The grassy lawn and paved steps into the river make Bob's Beach a charming riverside location for sharing a picnic or taking a dip in the Columbia River. Windsurfers use Bob's Beach as a launch site, so expect to see colorful sails on east wind days. The free parking, flush toilets, changing rooms and picnic tables make this a comfortable place to enjoy the Columbia River, and a short walk takes you to downtown Stevenson, WA where you can find ample shopping and dining.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
