I took a hard left after seeing the sign to this secluded beach along Oregon's beautiful coast…read moreline, my QX80 handled the steep grades of loose gravel just fine after finding the far left side of the road offered a much smoother ride as I whipped it around the switch backs to the tiny parking lot, almost proud of my off-road excursion only to find a few nimble cars and motorcycles had taken the same route without issue - I guess the sign suggesting four wheeled drive vehicles beyond a certain point is somewhat overstated - but I did enjoy the ride down even though my embellishment was only in my head. Once you park it's a fairly short hike down a well marked path, you may be tempted to take in all the scenery from the small park at the top but believe me the awesomeness will meet you at the waters edge. There's a small creek dividing the open area at the bottom of the trail it's a cake walk to cross it and if you've come this far you have to find a way to cross it, its about thirty feet wide but on this day it was merely a few inches deep, of course if there's a flash flood warning when you visit then your story may differ from mine. The sand is mostly silty in and around the creek but loosens up as your approach the water. As you stand amongst the giant rocks the waves atomizes the cool ocean water as it crashes into the rocks gently misting you with its salty spray, today the weather was quite warm so it was a welcoming anointment. The drift wood and rugged terrain is prehistoric and it's easy to imagine the Jurassic world when you stand so close to creation. The relentlessness of the ocean is almost deafening as the waves march ashore but yet it's a tranquil paradise filled with life forms that dance in the foam and tidal pools. If you can't find your sanity here all may be lost...

It's very short, about .5 miles and there's virtually no elevation. Parking is right off the highway. Some hike deeper into the forest and actually make their way on top of the bridges. Unfortunately some have also died doing so. Know your limits. There is a trail beyond the paved path and at some point it gets very steep and sketchy. This is where you should stop and turn around. It's best to enjoy these bridges from a distance and find much safer hikes to take which there are many of in this area. Happy hiking!

Really great spot to visit during low tide. Very neat to be able to visit a working light house…read more It's a peaceful place to be able to enjoy the beauty of the space. No cost to just walk up there. It's peaceful and beautiful. Totally recommend to make the trip out to to see the lighthouse if you find yourself in Crescent City.

Living in Northern California, I've been trying to take advantage of all the beauty our state has…read moreto offer, and the Battery Point Lighthouse is definitely one of those gems worth visiting! It's not just a lighthouse, it's actually a California Historical Landmark with so much character and history. You can only access it during low tide, which makes it even more magical (and a bit adventurous!). There are signs warning people not to cross during high tide and seriously, don't do it. The ocean can get wild out there! I went on a Saturday evening after 5 p.m., and the tide was already too high, so I played it safe and came back Sunday morning. Totally worth it. We had our coffees up there, and it honestly felt like being in a romantic movie scene. The weather was perfect, the ocean breeze was fresh, and the view was absolutely stunning. The lighthouse itself has such a cute, storybook charm. It even survived the 1964 Alaska earthquake and tsunami, which adds this incredible layer of resilience and history to the place. I didn't get to see any whales this time (though I heard you can spot them sometimes!), but there were plenty of seabirds flying around, adding to the coastal vibe. There's a park nearby with parking, so it's super convenient. And fun fact, according to their website, you can actually have your wedding there! How unbelievably romantic is that? If you're ever in Crescent City, take the time to visit Battery Point Lighthouse. Go early, bring a coffee, and just soak it all in, it's one of those places that makes you fall in love with the California coast all over again.

Jerry's Rogue River Museum and Gift Shop are in a building near the boarding area for the fantastic 5-star Jerry's Rogue Jets tours. Both the museum and gift shop are a-ok though neither is really amazing either. We came for the museum and it was a quick distraction with a couple rooms decorated with photographs, infographics, and stuffed-animal displays about the fish, birds, wildlife, and history of the Rogue River. Kudos to those that invested the time and energy to put the exhibits together. Rounding up to a generous 4 stars because there probably aren't many other free options for quickly learning a bit about the history of the area.

Coastal views If…read moredriving on the California coastline of Highway 101 North overlooking the North Pacific Ocean the last city on the California side is Crescent City in Del Norte County. We passed by some of the most beautiful beaches along the coastline including Pelican State Beach (known as one of the loneliest beaches in California) just some 21-mi North of Crescent City. We didn't stop here. Then there's the only supermax facility that housed the most dangerous maximum security men offenders... Pelican Bay State Prison, (13 miles from the Oregon/California Border). For sure we didn't stop here. LoL After crossing the stateline the first city on the Oregon side is Brookings in Curry County. Brookings is a small town just over the California border on the west Oregon coast. I believe the first building we passed by was a dispensary establishment called Stateline Cannabis. LoL Anyway, entering the Samuel H Boardman State Scenic Corridor we chose to stop at some of the scenic spots along the coast: Lone Ranch Beach - lots of scenic sea stacks and offshore rocks visible from the beach. Natural Bridges Viewpoint - at this viewpoint there's not only one but TWO natural sea arches! Oooh! Aaaaah! So pretty! Whaleshead Viewpoint - the rock formation looks like a whale. Overgrown trees were blocking the view of the "tail." There's a beach and coast trail access from this viewpoint. Current gas prices at Fred Meyer's in Brookings was $4.06/gal.

Top 5 favorite campground in our 7 years of RV travel!…read more One of the nicer state parks in Oregon. Clean sites, clean bathrooms, and private showers. Trash cans are every few sites so it makes it so much easier to keep things tidy for campers. They sell firewood and have nice large fire rings. There are so many trees and some sites have perfectly spaced trees so you can put up a hammock. There are a lot of park rangers on site. I noticed that they don't hesitate to address issues as they arise. You can walk to the beach from the campsite. It is a steep decent down a long driveway or you can take a questionable walking path to the rocks below. I recommend driving from your campsite to the beach parking lot. As for supplies, you are only a few miles away from a Fred Meyer grocery store. The town of Brookings has options if you need anything while staying here. There is a lot to do in the area so several days here isn't a bad idea. Lovely beaches, plenty of hiking options, small towns, redwoods....what more can you ask for?

It's neat to walk around and check out the big fishing boats and even the crab pots while there are signs that tell you about the harbor. We come here because it's safe and clean, my wife used the public restroom while we were there and she said they were very clean, like I said there were people on bike , kids playing catch with a football , the cars were driving slow.

AMAZING PLACE TO VISIT!!…read more During my first visit to Crescent City I also got to experience my first visits to the Redwood National & State Park. Day 1 - Jedediah Smith State Park & Stout Memorial Grove, and Day 2 - Mill Creek Trails & Grove of Titans. Mill Creek Trails & Grove of Titans was the best experience of the the trip as he walked and hiked through through the Trails surrounded by the dense forest all around us. The entire area was a beautiful site as we got to experience all of the enormous Giant Redwoods all around us. And the Grove of Giants was an absolute sight to see. Overall: Definitely a must see when in the local area, to experience an amazingly preserved part of California's coast and forest beauty.

Beautiful bridge spanning the mighty Rogue River in Gold Beach, Oregon. www.Bridgehuter.com noted…read morethis structure was "constructed with the Freyssinet method of arch ring decentering and stress control, (and) named after its French inventor. The American Society of Civil Engineers designated the bridge a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark in 1982. It was placed on the National Register of Historc Places in 2005. The success of the bridge led to the widespread use of prestressing techniques in concrete construction. The structure is dedicated to Isaac Lee Patterson, the Oregon governor who promoted its construction." The Patterson Bridge carries U.S. Route 101 across the Rogue River, near the point where the river empties into the Pacific Ocean, and connects the towns of Gold Beach and Wedderburn. Driving along Highway 101 between Medford and Grant's Pass, it is difficult not to cast an admiring glance towards the majestic bridge build in 1932 and incorporating a strong Art Deco influence. Park at the Port of Gold Beach near the Mary D. Hume shipwreck & walk the path along the river's edge. This will give you a great vantage point of the bridge and good camera angles too. Here you can drink in the beauty of the bridge up close and see swallows building their nests under the bridge; sea lions swimming by; birds diving for fish and salmon fisherman hoping to get lucky. Due to the elements, the Rogue River Bridge has required much preventive maintenance. The bridge needs consistent mitigation due to deterioration from the location's salt air. A $20 million rehabilitation ran from 2001 to 2004. A previous project in 1976 mitigated scouring problems at pier 2. Here's hoping this transport's beauty never fades. 5 YELP STARS.
