   Cape Perpetua - Spectacular!

   ‘Okay’ rating Posted almost 5 years ago

   We got married here (inside the visitor's center, rather than on the deck, due to a sudden monsoon), so we are obviously a bit biased, but we’ve always felt a strong connection to the Yachats coastline and this place in particular. The park ranger happened to be an ordained minister, and the local catering company offered wonderful accommodations for 50, so the whole thing couldn’t have been easier. Named for the old-time Christian Martyr Perpetua, who was fed to the lions rather than speaking out against her beliefs, there is a sense of profound depth and meaning as one stands on rocky cliffs overlooking the awesome Oregon Ocean. This has been a popular spot for thousands of years, and rightfully so. Bring raingear, cameras, and binoculars!

   The Cape Perpetua Visitors Center has informative videos about the area as well as a gift shop and a gorgeous ocean view. It's a great place for whale watching. Don't forget to drive to the top of the Cape for the best view of the Oregon Coast. If you're there at high tide, go check out the Spouting Horn, but if you're there at low tide, don't miss the great tidepools.
