Oregon: One Day in Florence, OR - Travel Vlog | Exploring the Oregon Coast - What to Do, See, & Eat

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Have you been to the coast of Oregon?! What are some of your recommendations?

[@barbaradarnell7376]

Near Canon Beach,Hug Point can be very beautiful.Oswald West park has nice scenery and a nice beach.The Samuel Boardman Corridor is some of the most beautiful coastal scenery of the North American continent.

[@loeyminske3459]

Astoria is a fun city. They filmed Goonies there. Museums, good places to eat

[@themerryrabbit5040]

Rain is the best part of OR! The Oregon coast with overcast skies is a whole vibe.

[@kaylaballinger495]

When you grow up in Oregon, you learn early to just "do it in the rain", whatever "it" is! 😅 When you embrace it, the rain turns a lot of normal days into adventures, it forces you out of your comfort zone sometimes and encourages creativity!

[@WAMama84]

First rule of the OR coast, never turn your back to it LOL. Florence is fun. Great vlog.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

🤣🤣We learned the hard way! Lol… Thanks for watching!

[@patriciawiskoff6959]

I lived in Florence, Oregon from1964 to 1973! And I loved it!

[@mykl775]

Florence is my hometown, Seeing it from another persons perspective is awesome!! Thanks for showing people how beautiful My home can be!!!

[@sarabillings4693]

I've lived in Florence for almost a decade! My husband and I were married on that exact beach. Seeing it from an outside perspective makes me feel extra appreciative to live here! Glad you guys enjoyed it.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aww… That’s so awesome!! It’s a beautiful place! Thanks so much for watching!😊

[@willsimmons3492]

Bend Oregon is a great town to visit! Oregon is one of the most beautiful states in the country, so underrated. Southern Oregon coast is magical

[@TravelAdventureswithEricB]

That's one beautiful place,I know where I'm going on my next trip to Oregon.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

It really was so beautiful!! I can't even imagine how amazing it would be when it's sunny out! But it was a fun moody fall trip! 🤣 Thanks so much for watching friend! 🎉❤️

[@JR-if7vh]

Welcome to my town. I hope you have a wonderful time exploring my home state.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Thanks so much! We really enjoyed our time!😊 Thanks for watching!

[@miranda1234651]

I really love how honest you guys are about what you like/don’t like. I feel like so many travel vloggers kind of like to paint everything in a really positive light and sometimes it’s nice to hear some honest feedback about the places/things to do/food. :)

[@dearmountains3431]

Wow Wow Wow !! What a gorgeous experience👍👍 Thank you so much for the awesome experience and inspiration😉

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Right?! So beautiful! Aww… Thanks so much for watching!😊

[@XOXO_kendyl]

I lived in Florence for about five years, and I loved it so much but we moved away to Texas and Texas is a lot different. I wish I could go back to Florence and we live all those old memories. I miss it so much it was beautiful there.

[@judasblewit]

Texas sucks. Too many people here.

[@loeyminske3459]

Love Florence! Glad you enjoyed it and let's face it, it's the coast and it rains alot!

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Isn’t that the truth!! Lol

[@Hexyb-mz5kf]

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Oh that is so cool! That area is so cool! We can't wait to go back & explore more! Thanks so much for watching & for your comment!

[@hedycohen9804]

Love the Oregon coast. Thanks for sharing.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

We had never been to the coast of Oregon & it really was so beautiful! We can’t wait to go back & explore more! Thanks so much for watching & for your comment! Makes our day!

[@JackChi]

You guys are a super cute couple. I was searching for Florence because I wanted to get an Airbnb rental there and found this video.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aww... Thank you Jack! We're so glad you found us! And we hope you enjoy Florence if you visit!

[@shadralewis5433]

Watching this a year later. OMG! Playing with tides on the Coast is so dangerous! Every year, a few ppl get caught up in sneaker waves. I was hoping you’d say something about that. Locals try to get the info out, but tourists coming off the highway usually don’t get the warnings. Hopefully anyone seeing this will do their due diligence and ask about any dangers on the coastline they’re visiting.

[@BillandKelleyAdventures]

So pretty. I (Kelley) was laughing so hard the wave chasing y'all. Loved your jacket Roll Tide!!!

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

We were so shocked at how beautiful it was. We even secretly loved how moody and "Fall" it was. 🤣😜 OH MY GOSH.. I still can't believe Matt just ran off and left me to fend for myself. 🤣☠️ haha What it doesn't show is how long we were out there. maybe like 10 minutes... and literally NO waves had come. haha It was a close one! 🤣 Thanks so much for taking the time out to watch & comment. Means the world to us! ❤️ - Nat PS. Go Gators. 😜🐊

[@landonwest4701]

Tickle approves! 🐈‍⬛

[@patriciawiskoff6959]

Visit the dunes on South Jetty Rd. Great shot to see Alot dunes!

[@NatKekuna2012]

You guys are so cute together. Best Wishes

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aw, thank you!🥰 Ad thanks for watching!

[@deefaye7336]

Boy oh boy, the giggles and the joy you two bring with your adventures. I have been to the coast of Oregon when I was much younger but I never saw anything as awesome as that Lighthouse. Thanks for sharing, loved every minute of it.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aww… That absolutely makes our day to hear! The Oregon Coast is absolutely beautiful! We hope to go back for sure. Thank you so much for watching!😊

[@kellynd5]

So glad you came to Florence!! My wife and I along with our son are privileged to call Florence home!! Sorry about the rain, it comes with the territory. Love following along with you guys.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aww… That’s so awesome! It’s such a quaint little town! We loved it! And I know we only got to experience a small bit. Haha… Yea, that’s what we hear about the rain! Thanks so much for watching!😊

[@georgecurry6108]

Awesome as always. Seems like you run into a lot of rain on your trips but that doesn't stop you guys from having fun.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aww thanks so much George!! We appreciate you! Haha it is true but we were just happy that we had some good weather in the day! Lol thanks so much for watching & your comment! It really makes our day!

[@waynewilson-er7vr]

You guys "are amazing", I wish you all the best, and hope to see you soon ( somewhere). I feel like family so let me sign off with.. Uncle Bill.

[@MarkandRad]

Love love love the new video guys! We went to Oregon a few years ago……long before we thought about VLOGGING, we need to go back. Oregon is beautiful and y’all captured it perfectly.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aww… Thanks guys!! We know that feeling! We spent a weekend in Portland back in the fall of 2019 (before vlogging) and SO wish we had documented it! It was so much fun! We definitely need to spend some more time on the Oregon Coast! It was so beautiful! Thanks so much for your kind words!🥰🥰

[@JesseD9884]

Mancala love it

[@michaelbyrd524]

You guys picked the best place for dinner. Absolutely our favorite restaurant. We drive from Eugene to go to the Waterfront Depot.

[@passportquinn.c5435]

Yay for a new video! What a beautiful place! Running from the ocean was probably the best part 😂, the drone footage at the lighthouse was a super duper close second. Even though you didn't get a sunset, the cloudy sky looked amazing.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Awww thanks so much! 😭 We appreciate your patience! It really was such a beautiful place! Bahaha 🤣☠️ still can’t believe we ran for our lives like that! Haha we had been watching waves for like 15 minutes and no waves & then all of sudden 🤣 still can’t believe he left me! Haha aww thank you!! Looking back I’m happy it was a typical PNW moody fall. Thanks so much for watching & for your comment! It truly makes our day! 💗🎉

[@atbreet]

Never been to the Coast of Oregon...but after watching this video we're thinking we might have to! Looks beautiful, great videos guys!

[@kelliwong1644]

Yay! I'm so glad you went to Florence! I've been there twice and we ate at the same restaurants and coffeeshops as you. Great choices! Loved the shots of the lighthouse you did.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

It is such a gem of a place!! NO WAY!! Really!? haha I love that!! 🤣 Great minds think alike! 😜🤣 Thanks so much for taking the time to watch & comment! It means so much to us! ❤️ - Nat

[@JulieciousDrinksFoodTravelFun]

Wow this place looks amazing.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

It really was! Thanks so much for watching!😊

[@mydeedee32]

So I just found you guys from your Nebraska video. Started the July video that mentioned Matt leaving you i had to come see lol. You guys are so cute love it.

[@MeansToTravel]

Another great video you guys! Sorry you missed out on a sunset, but just a good reason to go back! That area of Oregon looked AMAZING and I hope I get to visit there someday, too!

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aww… Thank you!!🥰 Yea, a beautiful sunset would have been the cherry on top, but like you said… We’ll just have to go back now! It really was a beautiful place! Thanks for watching! Hope y’all had a great time in Myrtle Beach!!😊

[@ShowMeAnAdventure]

Laughing SO hard I have tears in my eyes about Natalie running from the waves. 😂😂😂😂😂 Congrats on your dating anniversary!! 💕 (even though I know this was actually last year lol) I just love the moody vibe of all the b-roll from the rain/fog! I just love the west coast!!

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

😂😂😂 As you could see, we were in tears about that as well! 😂😂😂 Aww... Thank you! Even though we've been married for almost 5 years now, we will always celebrate our dating anniversary... Any excuse for a nice dinner and drinks! Haha... We totally agree!! Even though the weather wasn't what we'd hoped, it made for some great moody footage. Thanks so much for watching!😊

[@iyoalbarracin6752]

I really enjoy watching your videos. I ❤️ that you also include where to park cos you make it so easy for us to know where once we go there. Plus you write also the names + address of these places makes really everything about your vblog sooo informative! Keep it up. We’re here to support you. ❤️❤️❤️

[@reubenherrington4552]

Hi 👋 you two! Another amazing vlog, beautiful scenery, could you imagine owning a home there 🤯. Salad did look really good , how was it Natalie? and Matt’s fish looked great…Stay safe God bless and keep having fun!🙏👍🤗🥗✈️

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Aww thank you so much Reuben!! It truly was such a beautiful part of the country! 😍 right?! That would be such a view! The salad was good… I do wish the shrimp would’ve been local & bigger but overall it wasn’t bad. God Bless you & the family! 💗🎉

[@jimquest2220]

You could have seen so much in Oregon

[@grettagreen1]

Shame on the rain guys!! Sad the sea Lion was dead 😢 Looks like a beautiful place to go see!! Thanks for showing us so many great places to visit!!! Dinner looked SO GOOD!!!

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Yeah.. we are just happy it held off as long as it did! We'll just have to go back next time for a Summer experience! lol It really was a special place! Dinner was amazing!! ❤️ Thanks so much for watching & for taking the time to comment! ❤️

[@leilawitherspoon503]

I'm from Oregon 😁 by the way if you visit again you should check out some of the hot springs in Oregon ☺️

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Ohhhh that sounds amazing!!! Honestly Oregon is SOOOOO beautiful! We can’t wait to come back & explore more!

[@leilawitherspoon503]

@@AdventuresofMattandNat perhaps we could plan to meet up and hang out whenever you get the chance to visit again 😊😇

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

@@leilawitherspoon503 we would love that!!

You guys should come to Bend!! 🥰

[@davidw4781]

I suggest you both visit Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the country.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Could not agree more!! We drove by it and WOW! It was spectacular! 🎉 we can’t wait to go back & explore!

[@azlobster79]

We love Oregon and the beautiful coast. Isn’t it insane to be wearing coats at the beach? I don’t know why, but I had “Baywatch” flashbacks when y’all were running on the beach. 🏃‍♀️ 🏃 🌊

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

You aren't lying!! It's so beautiful!! We had only ever been to Portland before... The coast is just spectacular. and like you said it's weird wearing coats and seeing mountains right next to the water! 🤣🤯 I would've loved sunshine but the moody fall day was a nice change. haha I told Matt to chase me! 🤣🙈 Thanks so much for watching friend! So excited to see y'all soon! 🎉❤️🎉

[@shelabrehio1050]

It’s even weirder when in the winter it snows, and you have to wear your snow shoes on the beach. Lol but it’s so beautiful.

[@LegalShield3000]

Live near Portland. When I visit the Coast I usually stop in Newport and don't go farther. Florence the town is lame, but I love the Dunes.

[@gregdrivesdriver5104]

Florence? REALLY? Being a 5th generation Oregonian, I was wondering if you would visit Portland. The magical time in Oregon is July - October; otherwise, it's rainy and cold. Oregon is known for its incredible foodie scene with perfect seafood, fresh produce, berries and fruit. The Oregon Coast is beautiful but there's not much to do (It's for retired folks). Oregonians know that the best seafood is not at the coast but in Portland. Those shrimp that you had are known as bay shrimp, they are small and very strong in shrimp flavor.

[@nessa0587]

Whaaa Newport Oregon has amazing seafood. I live in Portland and I’d rather be at the coast then the city

[@JRMontgomery-ce6fj]

I lived in Newport and seaside you missed out on the sea lion case the smell of poop makes you feel alive

[@dionclark6581]

That was probably a harbor seal....

[@kikismith3744]

Salmon is local there btw.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Yea, as we said in the video, the only local fish that the Bridgewater Fish House offered was the smoked salmon. Thanks so much for watching!

[@kostyafomin595]

If you’re looking to see anything Florence, OR related look elsewhere. If you miss living in Florence and wanted to see some Florence related videos look elsewhere. You will be forced to look up close at the hosts of this thing forcefully smiling at you every 45 seconds while they’re telling you how beautiful the place is. You will not see how beautiful the place really is.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

👋🏻

[@dekelly7726]

Fun fact for you Pacific Ocean has the highest and most frequent waves

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

Ohhh interesting! Didn’t know that! That’s a cool fact! Thanks for letting us know!

[@mish4315]

There is way more to see on the Oregon coast. You picked the wrong time of year. Try Charleston Beaches and Seaside.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

👍🏼

[@JRMontgomery-ce6fj]

That's a culinary arts instructor what's the degree from Johnson & Wales Charleston South Carolina all the fish is Frozen that's too bad

[@2098elk]

Don't ever turn your back on the Oregon Coast Ocean!

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

🤣🤣 lesson learned! Hahaha

[@petermclaughlin3292]

Looks nice but l like Coos Bay better.

[@petermclaughlin3292]

Coos Bay is cooler and just as beautiful and more affordable with more business.

[@petermclaughlin3292]

Thank you. I appreciate you both and the live you have for each other stay forever.

[@A-Train23]

Omg, you guys are so original and genuine! Not….
