Beard's Hollow is a beach located in a circular indentation at the foot of a cliff on the Pacific Ocean, roughly one mile west of Ilwaco. It was named in honor of Captain E. N. Beard, the bark Vandalia's commanding officer. Unfortunately, the Vandalia was lost at sea near the mouth of the Columbia in 1853, and all crew members perished. The ship was later found floating upside down near McKenzie Head, and Captain Beard's body was discovered on the beach below what is now called Beard's Hollow.
