Depoe Bay

This town is known as the Whale Watching Capital of the Oregon Coast thanks to a resident pod of gray whales that makes its home offshore from March through December.

Catch a view of them from the Whale Watching Center, the many shore observation spots or a charter boat. A huge sea wall runs the length of the downtown area, enabling visitors to shop or dine within view of the ocean.
