Depoe Bay takes “on the water” to a whole new level. A massive sea wall runs the length of downtown, making it feel like the ocean is always just a few steps away.

Dramatic winter waves are a sight to behold but their power is no joke, as evident by this video by @seasidesurf🌊

⚠️ Watch from above and away from cliffs.
🚫 Jetties and logs are never safe spots.
🌊 Never turn your back on the ocean.
📍Check local tide tables before you go.

Sea Otters May Be Small Marine Mammals, But Their Effect on an Ecosystem Can Be Huge
Their fur is so soft it almost led to their extinction, but otters’ recovery has been a boon to Pacific kelp forests, a key habitat for other sealife

🍤 News flash: Those prawns on the menu aren’t from around here. But the small pink shrimp that taste fresh and sweet and turn up on salads and served with cocktail sauce? They are native to the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Oregon.

‘Tis the (s’mores) season!

🔥 Safe Beach Fire

1️⃣ Choose the right spot:
Build only on open sand — never in dunes, near driftwood, grass, or access points.
2️⃣ Keep it small:
Fires must be under 3 ft.
3️⃣ Put it out completely:
Douse with water until coals are cool.

The land we now call Yachats holds stories far older than our own. For generations, the Alsea people lived in deep relationship with these shores, rivers, and forests. Their presence and traditions remain woven into this place, asking us to walk with reverence, to listen, and to remember.

🌊 Winter is when the Oregon Coast shows its wild side. Towering waves crash against sandstone cliffs, King Tides transform the shoreline, and storm clouds roll in with dramatic force.
