Boiler Bay, Oregon Coast 7. View South From Boiler Bay Here you see the view to the south from Boiler Bay. A miraculous and rugged, basalt-rimmed bay, Boiler Bay is a great place to watch wild surf action on the rocky spurs. This splendid panoramic viewpoint presents a good opportunity to see migrating and resident gray whales. Take your binoculars -- this is one of the best sites in Oregon to see ocean-going birds (like shearwaters, jaegers, albatrosses, grebes, pelicans, loons, oystercatchers and murrelets). In 1910, an explosion sank the J. Marhoffer, and you can see the ship's boiler at low-tide. A short, rough trail takes you to some of Oregon's richest tide pools. ⇦ Back to Page 6 On to Page 8 ⇨Hi-Res Pic (134K) Return to the Boiler Bay Page 2 |
