Lived in Gold Beach 20yrs now, love the quiet, the ocean, the storms, you won't get rich quick but you'll find contentment!

Oregon is epic place to visit. My dream is to live there and live on a bluff that overlooks the ocean.

Oregon is a beautiful state. The coast line is out of this world!!

When I was a teenager I hitchhiked from Ithaca NY to Cannon Beach Oregon. When I got there some guy showed me a perfect camping place 25 feet above the beach in the park just north of that rocky outcrop north of Cannon Beach. It was a full moon that night and I had a place overlooking the sea and perfect full moon under a tree. That night I went down to the beach to look at the waves and had to walk really far out to get to the water. There was a sneaker wave that came forcing me to jump up onto the rocks nearby and the water got to about 6 or more feet deep flowing past me like a river. I had to wait for it all to drain out before running back to a safer level. That was a most amazing experience combined with a little terror camping there that night, before moving south.

I had the privilege of living in the Coos Bay / North Bend area from 1995 to 2011, where my wife and I raised our kids before an eventual career move elsewhere. It was the perfect launching point to explore the Oregon Coast. We traveled north and south to visit all the places and activities profiled in this video ... We miss the region, and the people there, dearly.

From morro bay ca to Cape flattery wa...gorgeous.🇺🇸🇺🇸👏

I have been fortunate to go to the Oregon coast many times and I have been from the north to the south and stopped at all of the points of interest. We always went to Neskowin from the time it was a campground with a community kitchen. Eventually the campground changed and became proposal rock inn. I have said many times the Oregon coast is a little piece of heaven on earth. Great video.

Drove this hwy a couple of times, brings back memories of how beautiful the Oregon coast is!!

In 1968 and 69, I delivered propane all along this stunning Oregon coast. No RR along the southern OR coast, so I drove a semi tanker, with trailer to load up in Coos Bay and then delivered to households, lumber mills, laundromats and whoever else wanted propane southward to Gold Beach. After all of these years, this coast line is still spectacular to me.

Great video. Thanks. My wife I plan a trip to the Oregon in 2022.

My father was born and raised in Tillamook County, so needless to say growing up we spent a lot of time visistng relatives and the breathtaking Oregon Coast. You can't get any better!!

I drove 101 North-to-South at the beginning of the year. In my opinion the Oregon coast was the most stunning coast the whole trip down. Some beautiful country indeed!

Yes, our coast is the best, and 101 is the way to go. Spot on- 🎉

I Lived in Florence as a Teen. It was awesome to be in.

I visited the Oregon coast on my last trip to Oregon in October 1995 Tillamook Oregon I also visited the Oregon coast twice in the 1970s Cannon Beach August 1976 and again on July 4th 1978 in Tillamook Oregon

thanks for posting this. so homesick

This is a beautiful byway. Documentary was well done. Enjoyed the trip along the entire state's coast. Thanks ODOT.

I live here and love it. Love the pace of life and the friendship of the residents. Scenery is a plus. Close enough to heaven for me!

Great job! I love my Oregon coast

Well done. I’ve driven the entire route and you caught the beauty of our coast

Done this trip many times with my wife in our VW Bus. Most recently last month. You must try Griffs on the Port Orford pier. Best fish shack on the West Coast.

How beautifuland great is our USA.Land that i love.There is no wondering why people alll over wants to come here.It is Huge,packed with gorgeous places ,packed with kindness,love,and freedom. Lets keep it safe in peace with love.

The trip from Astoria to California all along Highway 101. It's one of the most wonderful trips we've taken while traveling in Oregon, it's a dream, I know it's just over 300 miles and it took us a week to cross it, as we did many stops to see the beauties that we found, if they travel or have plans to travel this route, prepare with their cameras that will not stop taking many photos, good trip.

I took a trip with my mom from Neah Bay, Wa. on 101 all the way to the Redwoods in California. We took a week and camped every night in a different spot along the way. Oregon has the best and the most campgrounds. Very beautiful one with lots of big trees and great vistas. I really like the yurts. They have heat, electricity, and a bed and table & chairs. You still cook outside over a campfire, but it's ssdoi much more comfortable than sleeping on the ground. If you have bad knees, you'll understand!

A million thanks for sharing this valuable story! Please keep up with your awesome work!

I wanted to move to california when I was 18, So I did. On my schwinn continental and with about 100 in my pocket, I made it from west linn to lincoln city just about dark. The next 4 days I spent riding down the coast. Stunning beautiful country. Always loved that trip, but the logging trucks between cresent city and eureka were a bit daunting. I hope they widened the road since 1974.

There are many coastal roads like this around the world.

I have traveled up PCH and 101 from So Cal to into Washington and back a couple times on motorcycle. Best scenic in US. Did it by car a few times. It was best back in 70's and 80's before crowded with other people doing it.

So proud that I lived in Oregon for 15 years. I miss and love my second country. Thanks for the video.

One of my favorite trips I've been on was in Oregon. Drove down the beautiful highway 101 and then drove up to mt.Hood

Thank you for this amazing view that, once one's literally seen it, one can't help but return to (or live at if lucky) again and again. For me it has anyway. The 804 Trail in Yachats is my personal mecca for the spiritual blessings it gives. Even on the rainiest, windiest, coldest of days along this ocean-fronted path, I've never felt anything less than grateful to be there.

This is on my bucket list!

I backpacked the Oregon Coast Trail starting at the mouth of the Columbia river before ending early in Bandon due to a torn Achilles tendon. In those four weeks i got to explore places and experience views few get to enjoy. What an adventure that was.

I do you didn't experience the Samuel Boardman State Scenic Corrider you didn't see the tenth of the Oregon coast.

The Pacific Coast of the United States is my most favorite region in the country. The sheer enormity, the vastness, and the majesty of the Pacific Ocean is absolutely stunning and amazing. And, as an East Asian enthusiast (China, Korean, and Japan), these countries are just on the other side of this marine titan, and their cultural influences are strong in this region.

Looking at this from Australia's Pacific Coast (where I live), there are many similarities to our NSW coast south of Sydney - so both sides of that massive ocean do have connections!

What draws me? ... Wonderful Nature views and awesome photography!

Thanks for this video so AWESOME I love this OCEAN.

Stopped in Warrenton to watch deer munching the neighbors trees and call a friend in Warrenton....Virgina to get me. But he'll have to fly 3K miles west. It was a joke of course. Back at Canon Beach, took my first dip in the Pacific Ocean. Wonderful first time trip. Stayed only a couple of hours to resume my drive North into British Columbia, Canada.
