Spring into action and book your spring getaway NOW with Oregon Beach Vacations. We have an impressive collection of vacation rentals near some of the best spots to tidepool, beachcomb, and whale watch.
Here are some highlights and activities you can enjoy during spring on the Oregon Coast:
Spring brings vibrant wildflowers to the coastal landscapes. Head to areas like Cape Perpetua, Ecola State Park, or the Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area to witness colorful displays of blooming flowers.
Spring is an excellent time for whale watching on the Oregon Coast. Gray whales migrate north from their breeding grounds in Mexico to feeding grounds in the Arctic. Depoe Bay and Cape Perpetua are popular spots to watch these majestic mammals. Prefer to get up close and personal? Book a local charter. The friendly and knowledgeable crews will make sure you have a whale of a time!
Explore tide pools along the coastline during low tide. Places like Yaquina Head, Cape Kiwanda, and Cannon Beach provide some great spots to observe teeming marine life such as anemones, starfish, crabs, and more!
Birdwatchers will enjoy the arrival of migratory birds during spring. Many coastal areas serve as nesting grounds for various bird species. Consider visiting wildlife refuges like Bandon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge or Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge.
Walk along the sandy shores and hunt for seaside treasures. Spring storms can bring interesting driftwood, shells, stones, and other treasures to the shore. If you are vacationing in Lincoln City, keep an eye out for hand-blown glass floats. If you find one, you get to keep it. Finders keepers!
Enjoy the mild temperatures by exploring the numerous hiking trails along the coast. Cape Lookout State Park, Oswald West State Park, and the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area Siuslaw National Forest provide stunning views that showcase the rustic and raw beauty of the Oregon Coast.
Spring tends to be a quieter time on the Oregon Coast compared to the summer months. Enjoy tranquil walks on sandy stretches of undisturbed beach and leisurely strolls through charming coastal towns.
Indulge in fresh seafood at coastal restaurants. Spring is a great time to savor Dungeness crab, clam chowder, and other seasonal specialties.
Visit iconic lighthouses along the coast, such as Heceta Head Lighthouse or Yaquina Head Lighthouse. The scenic views from these landmarks are particularly captivating during the spring season.
While spring generally brings milder weather, occasional storms can still create dramatic coastal scenes. Cozy up in a beach front vacation rental and witness the power of the Pacific Ocean.
Check the local Chamber of Commerce event calendar or ask the locals. From seafood festivals to farmers’ markets to sandcastle competitions – there is always something happening on the Oregon Coast.
Remember to check weather conditions and local regulations before planning your activities. Spring on the Oregon Coast provides a wonderful blend of natural beauty and outdoor experiences.
