Cape Sebastian State Scenic Corridor offers gorgeous panoramic vistas. There are two parking areas that provide direct access to the overlooks. The first of them sits 200 ft. above sea level and offers a view that can extend over 40 mi. north. Humbug Mountain is a dominant part of this remarkable vista.
The view to the south is even longer, spanning out for nearly 50 mi. and encompassing St. George's Reef Lighthouse and Crescent City. Most of the park is covered by Sitka spruce. A 1.5 mi. walking trail to the cape leads to a great spot for hikers and bird-watchers. Head down to the beach and enjoy the rolling waves and foaming waters of the Pacific Ocean. Enjoy fishing or watch for wildlife on land and in the water. Twice a year (late March to June and mid-December to mid-January), the park becomes the perfect place on the Oregon Coast to watch enormous gray whales migrate north for the summer or south for the winter. WHERE: 7 mi. south of Gold Beach, just off Hwy 101. MORE INFO: 800-551-6949, OregonStateParks.org/park_73.php
