    Amazing views of the ocean and the large rocks, each with a name and story. Nice walkways to the beach.
    Restrooms were closed & locked in mid-September.

    We stumbled on this — so interesting to watch it be created, and beautiful to see it completed. We watched from the beach; later we wanted to see it from above but it was crazy busy above with cars, no parking, etc. It’s popular to view!

Great rock hunting beaches have found agates and petrified wood a few times, love it here and always spend some time here when in the area

    Bandon Beach is a very special and magical place. Every time you go, it looks a little different. The sand is hard making it the perfect spot for a power walk or a leisurely stroll. The sea stacks made every picture more interesting. Birders will love all the bird life. Families will love playing in the sand. Don’t miss this fantastic beach!

    On the windswept coast. Nice walk along the bluff. Be ready for the wind. Cool even on a clear day, Nice stairs down to the beach.

    One of the most beautiful Oregon coastlines. The waves and rocks make great pictures. You can also go down the beaches and watch the birds and seals enjoying life on the rocks. A must seen hidden gem if you are driving through Bandon!

    Bandon is the only place on the Oregon coast that I prefer. The beach is great, as is the rock collecting. The wind was really not bad around the jetty.

    The park was clean and the animals looked to be taken care of. The goats, donkeys, deer and sheep were a treat and wanted to play. The lions and tigers were mostly out and lying around their enclosures were clean and they look healthy. The monkey was very entertaining. All in all a great treasure of the small animal parks its not a huge zoo with lots of space for the animals but well worth the stop.

    The beach is one of the few you can drive on. Beware, though. This is a 4 wheel drive area only. People get stuck on the beach all the time and can easily lose their vehicles in the surf.

    if you are staying at Bandon Beach Hotel or Tablerock with Kids, this city park near both properties, is a great option..if you are a disc golf enthusiast, they ave a course as well.

    Quite a large area. The refuge protects the largest remaining tidal salt marsh within the Coquille River estuary. There is a viewing playform as well as a path that takes you through a short walk out into the marsh. We were only there about 30 minutes but saw Osprey, ducks, Canadian geese, Marsh Wrens and Swallows. Would love to return and stay much longer.
