Planning Your
Oregon Coast Vacation Begins Here

Your amazing Oregon coast vacation will start with the amazing drive along the Oregon Coast! This is one not to be missed. As a matter of fact, the Oregon Coast Drive made the "TOP 10 U.S. PLACES TO SEE BEFORE YOU DIE" list on Yahoo! 

Highway 101 hugs the shores of the Pacific ocean. Over 300 miles (480 kilometres) of winding, scenic roadway and beaches! All beaches are public thanks to the "1967 Oregon Beach Bill". This means none of the beaches are privately owned!  Enjoy!

Your Oregon Coast vacation will be an excellent beach vacation!  Some parts offer great surfing for the beginner as well as the more experienced. Some historic lighthouses may be viewed and the Hecety Head Lighthouse even has a Bed and Breakfast

• Best Seaside Towns to Visit •

- Florence, sand dunes and tastefully restored part of the "Old Town".
We had great pizza at 1285 Restobar and Trattoria.

- Astoria, known for Victorian style homes! The romance of a bygone era.

- Tillamook has wonderful cheeses! You just have to visit the Tillamook Cheese Factory . It is like visiting the Jelly Belly Factory in California! Great for the kids and parents will love it too!
