Tips from locals
One of the most beautiful spots in all of the Oregon coast, and the most picturesque lighthouse. If you have a day or even just a half-day, it's well worth the 1.5-hour drive from Eugene.
Heceta Head Light is a lighthouse on the Oregon Coast 13 miles north of Florence, and 13 miles south of Yachats. Perched atop 1,000-foot-high Heceta Head, the light atop the 56-foot tower was first illuminated in 1894.
Hike to the lighthouse itself, and see the historic Lighthouse Keeper’s home.
There is something about a stately lighthouse still in service that makes you like humanity. Most photographed lighthouse in the US. There is a hiking trail, too.
