Boiler Bay State
Scenic Viewpoint A
miraculous and rugged, basalt-rimmed bay, Boiler Bay is a
great place to watch wild surf action on the rocky spurs. This
splendid panoramic viewpoint presents a good opportunity to
see migrating and resident gray whales. Take your binoculars
-- this is one of the best sites in Oregon to see ocean-going
birds (like shearwaters, jaegers, albatrosses, grebes,
pelicans, loons, oystercatchers and murrelets). In 1910, an
explosion sank the J. Marhoffer, and you can see the ship's
boiler at low-tide. A short, rough trail takes you to some of
Oregon's richest tide pools.
