Central Oregon coast

Reedsport and Winchester Bay



Reedsport is on the Central Oregon Coast, approximately 2 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean. The communities of Winchester Bay and Gardiner are located 4 miles to the south and 2 miles to the north. The combined area of the three communities is referred to as the Lower Umpqua Area.

The Lower Umpqua Area is approximately 60 miles from the I-5 corridor, 87 miles southwest of Eugene, 70 miles northwest of Roseburg (County Seat) and 200 miles south of Portland.

The Coastal Communities are the gateway to 40 miles of undisturbed beaches and the tallest dunes in Oregon and the only Lighthouse on the west coast featuring a red lens, spectacular sunsets, a world-class Skate Board Park, magnificent Roosevelt Elk herds, the best fishing on the Oregon Coast, and other abundant wildlife and aviary viewing opportunities.

The rich and diverse natural beauty affords a number of outdoor recreational opportunities including body surfing at the beach, scuba diving, hiking through miles of tall timber, skateboarding, biking, ATVing, boating, fishing, walking the beach, sun bathing at Loon Lake, kayaking on the Umpqua River, splashing in the clear waters of Lake Marie, Whale Watching at the Umpqua River Lighthouse, roasting hot dogs over a beach bonfire, or sitting on one of the beach dunes watching the sun set into the ocean with someone you love.
