Route from I-5 to Oregon Coast

299 or 199. Some great ocean views from 101 just north of 299.

Hell I would tell him to take 20 just north of Sacramento and then follow it to 101 so he can enjoy the redwoods. Another option would be 299 ? out of Redding I certainly wouldn't wait til I got into Oregon to enjoy 101.

An alternative---
Go to Redding and take 299 over to 101 and you will be on Hwy. 101 all the way north to Newport.

Opps! not 298

I was thinking 38 also. He wants to spend as much time on 101 as he can before getting to Newport, but I've never been over that road. I always take 34 to 20 and I have taken 126 before. But he's wanting to get over to the coast as soon as he can.

Either Oregon 38 or Oregon 126 are suitable routes. I prefer 126 out of Eugene myself.

Ron , either 5 N to Eugene take hwy 126 to the 101 to Florence, Is a good road. But a long 101 trip north, great views. Or to Corvalis to the hwy 20 to Newport , a little more curvy but not as much 101 . BOTH good roads. I have traveled these many times.
Good luck.
