The Oregon Coast offers a wonderfully rugged experience to anyone willing to slow the pace and consider frequent stops a priceless benefit. After a friend’s recommendation and some research I launched into a 3 day excursion, hopeful to uncover some new gems and encounter the well-known settings. Taking into account this was my first time along this stretch I found myself driving a bit slower and constantly twisting my neck to not miss one item that may pass me by. The hours and days flew by and with much after-thought and I can see myself returning to discover more of this incredible coastline.
