Depoe Bay, Oregon
Your visit to the "Whale Watching Capital of the Oregon Coast" is sure to be
a memorable one. There is a resident pod of grey whales that make their home off
Depoe Bay 10 months of the year. Visitors from everywhere come to whale watch,
either from the many shore observation spots, or from boat charters that offer a
closer look.
Depoe Bay has the smallest natural navigable harbor in the
world, six acres in size. Because of the proximity to the ocean, fishermen or
whale watchers can be from dockside to viewing or fishing in a matter of
minutes.
A huge sea wall runs the length of
the downtown area which enables visitors to shop or dine always within view of
the ocean. This is the only town on the entire coast with this amenity. Waves
run beneath lava beds and build pressure to spout water as high as 60 feet into
the air. These are known as spouting horns and are visible during turbulent seas
and stormy weather. Recreation
Shopping, dining, fishing, and whale
watching are favorite activities in Depoe Bay and there are also special events
at various times of the year.
Depoe Bay is surrounded by a number of
scenic parks, award winning restaurants, top notch motels, ocean fresh seafood
and outstanding scenery. Regardless of the season, you won't regret visiting
Depoe Bay and the Oregon Coast.
