Audrey McCall Beach is an urban beach along the east bank of the Willamette River, near the Hawthorne Bridge in Portland, Oregon, United States.[1] Named after Audrey McCall and spearheaded by the Human Access Project, the beach opened officially on July 5, 2019.[2][3]

Human Access Project removed 19 tons of concrete from the beach during 2013–2019 with assistance of volunteers and inmate work crews.[4]
