SF/Napa/Oregon/Olema Trip 2016 - Day 17

It was a short 70 mile drive from Florence to Bandon today. We are staying at Bullards Beach State Park two miles north of town along the coast and the north shore of the Coquille River. 

This is another great Oregon State Park.  It has 103 full hook-ups as well as 82 water and electric sites.  It also has 13 yurts (small cabins), a horse camp, day use picnic area, and swimming and boat launching facilities.  It is also home to the historic Coquille River lighthouse at the mouth of the river inlet.  We stayed here several years ago and are enjoying our return visit.  We will be here two nights then on to Brookings for four nights before heading south to Olema,

After getting settled we went into Bandon for lunch at a restaurant at the harbor.  After lunch, we walked around the harbor, browsed in a few of the shoppes, and returned to the RV to relax before dinner.  We are eating in tonight.

The weather has been perfect - clear skies, temperature in the low 70's and a light wind. Tomorrow we are planning on touring the lighthouse and walking on the beach.
