| Travel south down the Oregon Coast to
prove once and for all, the Oregon Coast is a miraculous treasure. Begin
the journey at Neskowin, and see the character and style
of coastal residents. Lincoln City has something for every age to do and
see, from examining a covered bridge built in 1914 to
kite skiing the ocean to flying kites on
the sandy beach. Move south to Newport to see the color of
Wally Walrus at the Aquarium Village or see the marine life
at Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area - one of the
most accessible wildlife viewing locations on any coast! Only a few miles away, North of Newport, headlands such as Yaquina Head , will entice you to stop and marvel at the force of the Pacific Ocean. Over the years it has shaped the jagged rock remnants from the solid veneer of the past. South of the Oregon Dunes, the Southern Oregon coastal town of Coos Bay leads to Rocky Cape Arago where the Arago lighthouse keeps watch over sea travel of small boats and big ships alike. Further south in Bandon, beaches are seen from Face Rock Scenic Viewpoint as well as from the staircase of the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Reserve. The Oregon Islands provides protection and nesting sites to more than a million seabirds and includes pieces of the entire Oregon coast (nearly 2000 small islands, rocks, reefs, 2 headlands) that make up the Oregon coastline. Further south, Battle Rock commemorates the historic conflict between the Indians and white soldiers attempting to establish a settlement at what is now Port Orford. In Brookings, nearing the California border, is one of many many Oregon State Parks; Take one last look from Whaleshead Viewpoint as the journey through Oregon's treasure draws to an end. presenting... |
