3. See What’s in Bloom at Shore Acres State Park
Situated off the Cape Arago Highway, approximately 13 miles from Coos Bay, Shore Acres is a unique state park perched atop an ocean cliff. Before becoming a public park in the 1940s, this stunning property belonged to Louis Simpson, a prominent timber baron and a vital figure of the region’s development.
4. Explore the Coves at Cape Arago State Park
To the south, a moderately steep hiking trail navigates Drake Point and accesses the sandy South Cove. Here, activities like sandcastle building and tide pooling are popular. Every activity in the South Cove comes with distant views of Coquille Point and Cape Blanco.
