Know before you go
Beach Access Strategy
Lots at Cannon Beach and Cape Kiwanda fill rapidly during summer weekends. Seek alternative access points in residential areas where permitted or arrive early.
Coastal Topography Gaps
Cellular reception is frequently lost between major towns along Highway 101. Download offline maps for navigation between Manzanita and Newport.
Supply Intervals
Gas stations are concentrated in gateway towns like Astoria, Tillamook, and Newport. Ensure your tank is sufficient before entering the longer stretches of the Siuslaw National Forest.
Tidal Planning
Marine wildlife viewing at Haystack Rock requires visiting within an hour of low tide. Schedule these stops before town-based meals to ensure access.
Roadway Constraints
Highway 101 is subject to seasonal construction and landslide repairs. Check Oregon Department of Transportation alerts for delays near Hug Point or Wheeler.
