Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge, National Wildlife Refuge in Pacific City, Oregon.

Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge lies in southern Tillamook County, Oregon, at the confluence of the Nestucca and Little Nestucca rivers, 3 to 5 miles south of Pacific City. It holds at least seven habitat types, among them tidal marsh, tidal mudflats, grassland, woodland, pasture, forested lagg and freshwater bogs, including the southernmost coastal Sphagnum bog on the Pacific Coast.

The refuge was established in the 1990s to protect important habitats for migratory birds. The action aimed to support populations of threatened species including certain goose varieties.

The refuge is closed to all public use except during two special events, one in February and one in October, so there is no ongoing educational programme for visitors. Its cultural record comes instead from Oregon writer Matt Love, who served nine years as caretaker during the restoration of a former dairy farm and published "Gimme Refuge: The Education of a Caretaker" in 2010.

The refuge is closed to all public use except during two special events, one in February and one in October. Access is otherwise not permitted, so visits must be timed to those events. A viewing area was planned for construction, probably in 2008.
