Get your first glimpse of the rugged and breathtaking Oregon coast in the pretty seaside town of Newport. Make a slight detour to climb to the top of Yaquina Lighthouse, Oregon’s only wooden lighthouse before settling into your hotel in Newport.

On the way to Grants Pass be sure to visit Heceta Head Lighthouse, a 56-foot-tall, late-19th-century beacon that shines the brightest beam of any lighthouse in the state. Don’t miss a thrilling buggy ride amongst the sand dunes at Oregon Dunes National Recreational Area, where buggy’s climb to the top of the sand dunes and along the golden sand beach.
