Haceda Head Lighthouse and Sea Lion Caves

After spending one night at Patrick's Point and driving through more redwoods, we came to Haceda Head Lighthouse along the Oregon coast. We camped overnight in the RV parking lot at the Lighthouse and strolled to the beach in light rain as the sun was setting. It was a beautiful spot and no one else was there so it felt very pristine. Braden found this starfish in the grass along the river that flowed into the ocean. It was starting to get hard but he threw it back into the ocean just in case he could save it.

The following morning Mike and I went for a walk over to the beach again. It was a chilly morning but still very amazing views.

After some breakfast we drove back up the highway for one kilometer to the Sea Lion Cave. This attraction has been here for 75 years and started as a set of stairs down to a lookout into the cave. Now you walk down to an elevator (built in 1961) that goes down 20 stories into the world's largest sea cave where you have an opportunity to view Stellar sea lions in their natural habitat. If you'd like to view a live webcam of the sea lions you can visit http://www.sealioncaves.com and click on "view webcam".

These statues at the entrance to the path going down to the elevator are life size. You can view Haceda Head lighthouse to the right in the background.
