Dunes Meet the Surf

The town of Florence, although small, boasts many nearby attractions. The Oregon Dunes provide a playground for all types of off road vehicles from trucks to buggy’s, motorbikes and ATV’s. Not only does Florence benefit from the recreation of the dunes but it has the historical Haceta Head Lighthouse and one of the most famous Sea Caves in the world where wild sea lions can be viewed up close in their natural habitat.
