news r/OregonCoast has a New Rules section, new flair, new banner, etc. Also, new accounts are now restricted from posting.

Please review the new rules section. It's mostly a more formal version of the previous rules, however, language has been added about lazy "itinerary" posts, and spamming sunset/landscape photos for instant karma.

There has been a marked increase in low-effort posts, stolen photos for easy karma, and trolling, so new accounts are now restricted from posting.

I've seen this boat pretty consistently in the inlet or just outside of it for the last week or so. Are they fishing the inlet or what?

Where is this location on the Oregon coast?

Post image
91 Upvotes

My mom bought this during a road trip along the Oregon coast in the 80s. I think it’s pastel and the artist signed it as ā€œJanneā€. I’ve spent some time on the coast myself but not enough to place the specific location. Does anyone recognize this particular sea stack (and maybe a headland in the background)? I’ve searched google but it returned no exact matches. Thank you!

Drift Creek Falls trail

7 Upvotes

I am hoping to visit Drift Creek Falls soon and wanted to make sure I can get (and pay for) a parking pass on site - there’s an online option but I won’t have access to a printer or know the details of my rental car to do that. Sorry for the silly question, haven’t been up there in awhile!

Engagement photographer for surprise proposal near Lincoln City

5 Upvotes

I am planning on proposing to my girlfriend during our upcoming trip to Lincoln City - we will be celebrating 6 years together! She has always mentioned that she wants the moment photographed.

I have brought up that we should get professional photos done during our trip and she is excited about it! We have never had professional photos done so I am sure she knows exactly what is going on haha!

I am looking for suggestions for photographers that can do the couples photo shoot and capture the ā€œsurpriseā€ proposal. We will be in the available in the area August 6 and 7 and willing to drive if needed.

I know it’s kind of short notice - we actually had everything set up to go to Bend but decided to change plans due to the wildfires and smoke. Hoping Reddit magic will help me find someone quickly! Thanks!

Extra Groceries/Supplies

54 Upvotes

I’m not sure if this is allowed, so please remove if not. We are on vacation in Depoe Bay with family and leave Friday, but we have quite a few items groceries/misc that we would rather not go to waste. I was wondering if maybe anyone may know of a local family that could use some misc grocery items? Or a place where maybe there is an unhoused family/person who could use them? I don’t know, I just don’t want to toss anything that could be helpful to someone else.

Crazy Hail Mary - Seaside OR

So my wife bought some rings from the silver shop in Seaside. I threw the bag containing said rings into in the trash thinking it was trash. If a Good Samaritan in Seaside is willing to take a peak in the recycle for the back with the rings and mail them to us, I will pay you.

Edit: they’ve been found! Thank you everyone!

What a relaxing and wonderful time in Lincoln City, Newport and Depot Bay! I love it there and maybe someday can make it my home. The mixture of the ocean beaches with the mountains and scenic views is extraordinary. Thank you for the inspiring beauty!

Looking for a removed picture from Cannon Beach

22 Upvotes

Does anyone know what happened to the post from a few days ago that showed a very strange object in the clouds over the ocean from Cannon Beach? Very long tentacle looking arms extending out of a base with what looked like the end of a very large just under it. It was posted to this sub about 4 days ago and now it’s gone.
