The Oregon coast is home to a wide variety of marine life – from things you need a microscope to see to giant whales. Some swim, some crawl, some slide, and others just stay put. From the shore, visitors often see Gray whales and Orcas swim by. Take a fishing, whale, or bird watching trip offshore, and you might get to see Humpbacks or even a Blue whale! At this spot you can surround yourself with all sorts of marine critters, from sea slugs to octopuses to wolf eels. Right outside the front door, look for the “Whale Thoughts” geocache in the Humpback Whale skull.
This is a fun geocache on the official Cache the Coast GeoTour presented by Oregon Coast Today, Wild Rivers Coast Food Trail, and the 2019 Live Culture Coast event.
The Wild Rivers Coast Food Trail is a collaborative effort to connect locals and visitors to the bounty available on Oregon’s South Coast. Supporting local food is a way to support our communities and the producers & crafters that work hard to grow and use our local ingredients.
Live Culture Coast is a sensory celebration of creativity, exploration set along the edge of the continent amidst the wilds and wonders of the Southern Oregon Coast. Running from Reedsport to Brookings, the Southern Oregon Coast landscapes are dramatic, literally breathtaking.
Live Culture Coast grew from a desire to explore the energetic possibilities of different ecosystems, ideas, microbes, stories, and people coming together. People and community. Locals and travelers. Microorganisms and food. Landscapes and creativity. By joining the people of Live Culture Coast, you yourself are an active starter for a beautiful place in the process of becoming. Geocaching got its start in Oregon in 2000, yet more proof that Oregon has an active starter culture. We hope you will join us to explore the edges.
