The secret spot for Portland’s outdoor enthusiasts is actually an island on the Columbia River, just to the north of the city. Sauvie Island offers plentiful wildlife amongst an agricultural community that is littered with recreation opportunities. Sandy beaches along Sauvie’s western shore become a favorite spot for swimmers in the summer. Collins Beach is surrounded by a 12,000 acre fish and game reserve giving the beach a wild and private feel. For this reason, the beach is also a partly clothing-optional area, so be prepared for a surprise.
