From nearly every viewpoint on the Oregon coast, colossal rocks can be seen jutting out of the Pacific Ocean creating postcard images.
Spanning the Oregon coast, the wilderness islands and windswept headlands are celebrated for their abundant wildlife and rugged grandeur. Rocky islands and sheer cliffs provide isolated breeding and resting habitat for diverse communities of birds, marine mammals, and plants along the wave-battered coastline.
Each of these rocks is protected as part of Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge. The refuge includes 1,853 small islands, rocks, and reefs plus two headlands, totaling 371 acres spanning 320 miles of Oregon’s coastline from the Oregon–California border to Tillamook Head.
All of the island acreage is designated National Wilderness, with the exception of 1-acre Tillamook Rock and Lighthouse, so public access is restricted but there are spectacular viewing opportunities at numerous locations along the coast.
It’s possible to drive the entire Pacific Coast Scenic Byway in a single day. But why would you when you have member inns of the Oregon Bed and Breakfast Guild from Ocean Side to Port Orford? Take a few days, take a few side trips and enjoy the ride.
