Exploring near Coos Bay, Oregon || Cape Arago, Bastendorff Beach, Shore Acres and more!

We've moved a bit up the Oregon coast to the Coos Bay area -- staying at Bastendorff Beach County Park and checking out the FOUR State Parks just down the road. We check out Sunset Bay SP, Shore Acres SP and Botanic Gardens, Cape Arago SP, and Yoakam Point SP. We also find the perfect way to get a closer view of the Cape Arago Lighthouse!
We were here in mid-May and saw temperatures in the mid to upper 50s Fahrenheit

We live in Coos Bay. I 'm glad you liked it.

[@EatSleepRVRepeat]

Those gardens were amazing. Lou & Angie

[@WanderlandTravelers]

The rhododendrons were in peak bloom, it was glorious 😄

[@jill6680]

I loved this video. I'm seriously considering moving to Coos Bay/ North Bend this year and I really appreciate all the views you showed.

[@linesbylisa3557]

I just love your video’s and you give such great information about the areas your adventuring in. 😁

[@hughwhullphotography6148]

Wonderful video! As residents of the Coos Bay area (we are recent transplants from Arizona) always have enjoyed these amazing state parks.

[@WanderlandTravelers]

Ah, fantastic! Glad you enjoyed seeing it through our lens ☺️ we had hoped to paddle in the south slough reserve but weather and timing didn’t really work out for us. Definitely a place we’d love to visit again!

[@hughwhullphotography6148]

@@WanderlandTravelers If you are ever in the area again, it would great to share a flight---

[@WanderlandTravelers]

We’ll have to remember that!

We camped at Sunset Bay a few years back - the tide was low, but not this low. There were tide pools that our old girl, Lexie lounged in. The lighthouse history is fascinating and those houses 😍

[@WanderlandTravelers]

That would’ve been great to be even closer, and to walk to the sunset bay for sunset 😍 yes! Those cliff houses were great, would be fun to rent someday

[@Randy-jp6ly]

you can get an Oregon state park tag which allows you unlimited access to state parks for like $30 annually.

[@JJs-ClassC-Adventures]

So many great ideas for our trip next summer...believe it or not....Turtle Rock RV already has reservations up for next June 2022 Guess who just reserved RV site #46? You know...the one you liked with the hot tub on the river. Well, that would be me!

[@WanderlandTravelers]

Yes!!! I’m so glad you’re going there and that you snagged the primo spot!! That’s fantastic 😄😄😄

[@HSkyler]

15,000 likes!!! Great shots of the lighthouse. And those trails!

[@WanderlandTravelers]

Hey thanks 😃 it was fun to find a way to get closer to the lighthouse, and not a lot of people seem to do it. Such a pretty area 🌊🌲

[@greatbay6593]

Loving your PNW journey! Please be careful of those sneaker waves! Thank you for sharing!

[@WanderlandTravelers]

Thank you!! Definitely have to always be aware of the tides and watching for sneaker waves ❤️✌️

[@johnmat7099]

I just moved from coos bay and it was nice to see some of my old stomping grounds here's a fun fact for you did you know that north bend and coos bay are actually the same its "north bend of coos bay" nice content and love how you are respecting our areas as this is a treasured area for all Oregonians just subbed to you thank you for the video!

[@WanderlandTravelers]

Had no idea those were the same place! We love Oregon and being in nature, so we always hope to be good examples ❤️ thanks for the kind words

[@johnmat7099]

@@WanderlandTravelers absolutely you deserve it and next time your in Charleston swing by chucks seafood they are the best in southern oregon coast and if you go all the way down that same road there is a nice small beach that is accessible only by foot and locals use it to fish for salmon I could share more secrets but they wouldn't be secret no more enjoy your adventures in Oregon it is truly amazing in every way

[@janinecarson8380]

Well, not exactly. There are two separate city governments, school districts and city limit boundaries.

[@juniper9549]

I have not seen all of your adventures but curious if you have explored Cape Perpetua just north of Yachats? Thor’s well and everything is amazing we love adventuring there. Also Winchester Bay is awesome, 3 beach accesses the harbor, sand dunes and 10 areas to camp. We love windy cove 2. We are heading there soon. Also in North Bend you have to go to Yeong’s Burgers 🍔 probably the best burgers in the state. Have fun guys.

[@WanderlandTravelers]

One of our first RVing trips was to Windchester Bay 😀 Isn’t Oregon the best!

[@juniper9549]

@@WanderlandTravelers the Coast sure is 👍👍. Don’t much care for the inland heat lol 😂

[@paulkersey2179]

We stayed at Sunset Beach SP a few years ago, I almost got trapped by the rising tide. Oregon has done a very nice job of keeping a lot of the coastline open and many have camping parks. Your probably up in Astoria by now, there is a Casino (still there?) you can stay over night in right along the main road.

[@WanderlandTravelers]

Yikes! Yes, it’s so important to stay aware of the rising tide! I’m sure that’s a nice campground at Sunset Bay, was your cell signal very strong there? We love Astoria, will have to remember to check for the casino if we go 👍👍

[@E_House]

Does that mean that Brad had good Verizon signal at the county park to work?

[@WanderlandTravelers]

We were there for a week and were good to go with streaming and work 👍 I don’t recall which cell provider but I think Verizon was stronger
