Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area, Newport

It is indeed an outstanding natural area! 7 dollars to enter but for a 3 day pass so you can come back within 3 days without paying again. Well worth the walk down and back up the stairs to check out the tide pools by the ocean. Really peaceful place to come spend some time and incredibly beautiful.

Great place to go at low tide! Park rangers are there to give instructions and answer any questions. Very nice people! The rocks on the way to the little tide pools roll under your feet! Wear sturdy shoes! There are a lot of stairs, so keep that in mind! The view at the base of the lighthouse is amazing, even on a foggy day! The flowers around it are beautiful!

An amazing park for the whole family. The museum part is well put together and it was a nice refuge from the rain, and once the rain calmed it was fun to be at the lighthouse and go down to the beach. We didn't see any whales, though it was whale season, but we did see sea lions and a blue heron along with lots of little critters in the tide pools. Highly recommend. The beach is a little hard to walk on because it's a cobble beach.

Beautiful place with lots of things to see. Payment of 10 dollars is needed to enter. Pass last 5 days and gives you access to multiple places at the Oregon coast. If you're looking to go marine life sight seeing this is a great place to do so with Seals sitting on rocks a far and swimming around.

This area is brilliant. Your visit will likely begin at the visitor center which offers amazing insight into he headland, the lighthouse and the wildlife that lives there. The lighthouse movie is well worth watching. The center has a great gift shop, good facilities and plenty of helpful staff. The lighthouse is closed for covid, but you can still walk to it, and around it. The area itself is wonderful and should be visited if you're in the area.
