"Views from the Sea Lion Caves" Florence Things to Do Tip by GuthrieColin
Florence Things to Do: 45 reviews and 109 photos
The accessibility to the caves is done by entering the gift shop from the street level. You will need to buy a ticket to get to the cliff face and elevator. The tickets are as follows:
16+ - $8.00
6-15 - $4.50
-5 - Free
There are several great views to be had in the park. The best ones I found were looking to the south toward the city of Florence. The ocean meeting the dunes was a very stark contrast from this viewpoint.
The other great views are of looking to the north and viewing the Haceta Head Lighthouse. Inside the cave there is a viewpoint that is accessible by taking a stairway up from the floor of the cave. It peeks out over the cliffs and to the lighthouse.
Directions: The Sea Lion Caves are only 11 miles north of Florence along hwy 101. There are signs denoting the turnoff from both directions.
