Coastal Parks of Oregon

In the late 1960's, Oregon made the bold decision to save its entire coastline from private development, allowing the public
to enjoy and use nearly all of it, in exchange for reduced taxation of private landowners. The result is that there are
access points from the highway around just about every turn, and state parks, many of them fee-free, dotting the coastline's entire length.
