Cape Kiwanda State Natural Area
One of the most interesting headlands on the Oregon Coast is Cape Kiwanda. The sandstone, the large seastacks, a monster sand hill and many tidepools creates some of the best photo opportunities. Cape Kiwanda is the smallest of the capes on the Three Capes Scenic Route, but it's said to be the best place to experience spectacular wave action. The cape can be approached by vehicle on the north side or from Pacific City right at the south side, where the dory boat launching area is located. You can park there or park up on shore in Pacific City.
