There’s no better place to spend an afternoon than on the Oregon coast. Breathe in that fresh sea air, take in the water views, and maybe enjoy a fistful of salt water taffy while you’re at it. There’s a boardwalk in Coos Bay that’s a perfectly pretty spot for a stroll.

Welcome to the Coos Bay Boardwalk. This pretty wooden boardwalk is the perfect place for a stroll on a sunny day.

Plan to visit when you have a little bit of time to just leisurely enjoy your surroundings. The boardwalk has long benches for sitting and enjoying the fresh air, and lots of picnic tables that are perfect for lunch.

Make sure to bring your camera along on this adventure, so you can capture pretty bay views, and photograph the line of picturesque boats on the dock.

Check out the Koos No. 2 on display. This tug boat was built in 1924, and served for decades here in the bay. It was retired in 1987, and you can learn more about it right here.

You’re certain to see plenty of seagulls on your walk, and some will even hold still long enough for you to capture a photo or two.

Would you prefer to stroll along the seaside in the northern part of the Oregon coast? The promenade in Seaside isn’t a boardwalk, but it’s a beautiful 1.5-mile-long path that you’ll definitely want to explore.
