On our way along the Oregon Coast we stopped at the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. The full area is large although we only saw a small portion of it.
Near the entrance was a small visitors center with displays about the area and greeters who provided maps / additional info.
Then we headed up to a lookout area where you could park and follow a short trail to the dunes. Up a couple sets of stairs there are platforms that are perfect for taking pictures of this windswept section of coast.

I have never seen a place like this before. The massive size of the dunes is awe inspiring. Such an interesting place to see. Make it a stop on your journey, even if its raining.
