Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area
Yaquina Head is a narrow, coastal headland extending one mile into the Pacific Ocean. Formed by ancient lava flows, Yaquina Head's hard basalt cliffs and coves have been shaped by pounding ocean surf for 14 million years. Abundant wildlife such as whales, harbor seals and seabirds can be viewed from the many breathtaking vantage points around the 100-acre site. Explore tidepools, listen to nature's music and see Oregon's tallest lighthouse - all at Yaquina Head.
This pass provides access to the entire park site including the interpretive center, tidepools, wildlife viewing areas, trails and lighthouse.
Open Hours: Yaquina Head is open year round with times varying based on the season.
