With partial funding support from the State of Oregon's Regional Strategies

that every Oregonian and visitor will use over and over again while exploring
Oregon's incredible coastline. The text takes

interesting and noteworthy features within each numbered section. The focus is on
recreation and coastal natural resources. Forty-three pages of full-color
maps form the heart of the atlas. They show the locations of everything
from golf courses, parks, campgrounds, and hiking trails to prime areas for
bird-watching, tidepooling, and whale-watching. About 35 different kinds
of resources and recreational options are mapped with easy-to-understand
