Bandon Beach

Bandon Beach is a coastal area in Oregon where dramatic rock formations rise from the Pacific Ocean and define the shoreline. The beach extends along the coast with varied geological features that create a distinctive landscape.

The beach area was assembled between 1954 and 1970 through purchases from multiple private owners and contributions from local authorities. These land acquisitions created public access to what is now a popular coastal destination.

The rock formations have shaped the character of this place and draw people interested in nature photography and marine observation. The beach offers a direct connection to the wild coastal landscape that defines the region.

Check tide tables before exploring, as many areas are only accessible at low tide. Conditions change rapidly here, so watch the waves and move carefully along the rocky sections.

When the tide goes out, the rocks reveal tide pool ecosystems filled with sea anemones, starfish, and small crustaceans. These miniature worlds show the diversity of marine life concentrated in small pockets along the shore.
