Sunset at Coquille Point

I covered how breathtaking the scenery is of the sea and sand and sea stacks and reflections in my last post focusing on the area close to Face Rock Scenic Viewpoint. Coquille Point is not that far away – we walked here from our Sunset Oceanfront Lodging in less then 10 minutes. Despite the small distance the view here is very different, and I would recommend a sunset at Coquille Point as among the most beautiful in the Oregon Coast.

Coquille Point is similar to Face Rock Viewpoint in that it is an area of an elevated cliff area that looks down to a beach with sea stacks. But the feel is remarkably changed because the rock formations here are much larger with a few smaller stacks scattered. One of the formations is nicknamed Table Rock because of its large flat surface. The path down to this area from the bluff is stunning with wildflowers and a perfectly placed bench.
