Will be spending - God willing - time on the OR Coast next summer; already have the reservations at Cannon Beach. Have stayed a lot of places on the Coast over the years but never Bandon. Can on...

Hi, Lauren,
We spent a week in Bandon last September and loved it.
Along with the activities that have already been mentioned, we enjoyed the following:
The Cranberry Festival was taking place with the whole town participating. The people were very friendly and we spent a whole day visiting interesting booths, enjoying musical performances, shopping etc.
They have a great public pier where the crabbing was great while watching the fishermen/women coming and going with their days catch.
We took a drive one day to the cranberry bogs north of town and then to the little inland town of Coquille. There was an interesting museum there where we spent several hours.
We went beach combing for agates and actually found some nice ones.
The Bandon Marsh was a beautiful place to visit for bird watching and photography.
North of town is the Seven Devils Scenic Drive with several panoramic overlooks as well as a great viewpoint from which to watch a sea lion colony.
I'm ready to go back right now!!
Enjoy your trip,
Sandi
