We drove from cannon beach to florance and this was the most scenic spot we stopped. For best views , park at the interpretive center and walk to the lighthouse .

Such a beautiful area! We weren't aware that you could walk down on the beach to see the tide pools , so make sure you have on appropriate walking shoes to take advantage of all there is to see.

Stopped here on a whim as we drove up the Oregon coast. Well worth your time. Tidal pools to explore, gorgeous scenery and great views of a variety of wildlife , from birds to seals .

Beautiful view from lighthouse area and some history to learn of it from boards. Lots of fleas/flies but it’s part of nature. If you’re driving to the area, you have to pay $7 (a 3 day pass).

They don’t let you in, but looking at it is still pretty dope and worth the trip. Plus, some tide pools are nearby and it’s worth a stop for those too.

Trivia : There used to be a lightkeeper's house on the grassy area bewteen the tower and parking lot . Be sure to also check out Yaquina Bay Light a few miles south of here if you have the time.

Nice lighthouse and amazing view . Good area for hiking

This place is a must visit, if you want to see sea lions and whales in their natural habitat.

Beautiful views , even for those who have limited mobility. Fascinating and breathtaking.

Great spot for watching seals and cormorants.

Get there early to avoid crowds!

Worth a short wait to climb to the top. Could also just spend hours on the views .

Def. Worth $7, but it could take a while to climb up the lighthouse . We waited over an hour... Lots of other things to check out though. Not to mention it's beautiful...

Great tour of a working lighthouse . Our wait was only 10 minutes.

You can often see gray whales offshore from here! Definitely worth more than $7.

Be prepared if the weather is nice... the kelp flies are out of control.

The flies. Omg. This place is freaking swarming. They won't leave you alone at all. I went back to the car after a few minutes because it was so overwhelming.

Don't stop your almost to the top and the view is so worth it.

Tours of the lighthouse daily at 9:00, 9:30, 10:00, and 10:30.

The fly situation is out of control. (August)
