These natural caves are home to Oregon's sea lions. Twelve stories tall and the length of a football field, the cave is a cold home to these seals in winter and a favorite basking spot during the warmer months. It is a sight to see when these personable ocean dogs play on the rocky volcanic cliffs. The immense cave is their community where the sea lions gather and reproduce. Eleven miles north of Florence, the caves are a spectacular treasure of the coast.

“A must-see!”
This was a great last minute stop for us on our way up the Oregon coast. What no one has really mentioned is that the viewing areas off the cli...
