Yes.  I live in Long Beach and saw two nice bulls on the beach last year by Chautaqua Lodge.  They weren't by the surf, but in the beach grass.

I have seen elk on the beach at Lincoln City many times.  It is kind of like wow, until you see them a few times, playin in the surf.
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

I see deer on the beach all the time.  They go down and lick the rocks at low tide.

Yes, my Wife and I were at the end of Long Beach last year hiking and ran into about ten elk.

Lots of bears at Long Beach too.
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

In Sequim, I have seen four bull elk swimming single file out in the salt water, a few miles east ot the spit. Pretty wild.

--The bears are all over all the way to the end, the elk use to be all over but probably south of klipsen now but you never know, I wouldnt doubt people seeing them all the way to the end!
