Oregon Coast
Visitors spend $2.1 billion on the Oregon Coast, which leads to the direct employment of 23,500 locals.
In 1967 Oregon passed the pioneering beach bill, ensuring all 363 miles of Oregon’s coastline remain free and public. That means endless opportunities to comb for agates or glass floats, catch your own Dungeness crab or razor clam, watch for whales, seals and puffins, make footprints in the sand or simply be captivated by a winter storm from inside a cozy beachfront lodge.
