Five pics are no witness for fresh beauty of Oregon coast. Not only beaches but also wildlife and small communities across the coast are unique. The tectonic fault that run parallel to the west coast has produced many earthquakes over centuries. Tsunamis and ocean currents along with earthquakes have created a unique set of islands and ecological system across the coast. Old light houses and trails still stand. Whales, seals and other animals frequent the shores and waters. Oregon coast was like no other coast in USA not only because of its landscape and natural beauty but also for the vibe in small towns of northern and central coast. To wrap it all southern coast also has large sand dunes. I experienced people living with real freedom there. Stress was at the lowest and cash was king. Cannon Beach came out as winner, my favorite town of all. As one of the local shopkeeper put it, cannon beach was a town of well-settled happy hippies and it was evident. Do not miss Oregon coast, it is truly one of a kind! Enjoy a bonus video of drive through central Oregon!
