We always spent a couple night on the coast, but we usually stayed around Lincoln City since it's close to our base of Dallas, Oregon. This year we headed north. We don't often go that direction because the road heads inland from the coast in many places. A lot of the highway is through forests, but there are also lots of farmlands with some interesting animals in them.
The areas where we did see the ocean were beautiful.
Most of the ocean views were from high above ocean level.
