This place is a must see. I took the advice of heading there in the morning time,(9am) good advice because I was the only soul hopping around this lovely tourist attraction and enjoyed the peace till closer to 10:30am. At the top, looking into the punch bowl is a pretty sight but while I was pulling out of the parking lot I took a left and parked on 3rd street then walked down to the dead end area and walked the path down to the beach. Best experience ever, beautiful sea life and lots of moss on the rocks so be careful!

Next time I am back on the Oregon Coast, this is a must place to visit and picnic. It was rainy and cold on the day I went, but it was beyond beautiful.

This naturally ocean-carved bowl in the rocky bluff is a beautiful site. If you want to see the water raging and churning, make sure to go at high tide. At low tide, you can explore the bowl and rocky beach below.

The Devils Punch Bowl and the beach below are truly beautiful. It is worth the stop to see the punch bowl. Wear a windbreaker and bring a camera. Maryjane

This is a must see along the Oregon coast scenic route. The path down to the punch bowl is a little steep if you start from up near the squirrels and Moe’s. Bring a camera but you won’t be able to capture the views actual depth. Also bring some peanuts for the squirrels they are pretty used to people. If you have never been to the oregon coast this should be the place to stop to know.

The Devil’s Punch Bowl is a circular area carved by water out of the side of the rock along the coast. Our timeshare was located close to the punch bowl. Our first visit was during low tide. We walked along the coast and climbed into the punch bowl. There were a lot of tide pools, and it was really neat to see it from the inside. Our second trip was during high tide. Unfortunately the tide was not super high that day. From what we’ve heard, when the tide is high and the weather is bad, it is supposed to look like a roaring cauldron. When we saw it, the bottom was covered in water, but it was not particularly high or roaring. It was still neat to see the formation though.

Compared to some other states, the Oregon coast is rocky. Sometimes an accident of sea geography produces eroded rocky basaltic tide pools, shallow spots, alternately flooded and not so. That enables a zoo of plant and animal life that you can walk out to see at low tide. The Devil’s Punchbowl is an accessible tide pool area, uncluttered by tourists. There is a free parking area on 2nd and C. Check your tide tables(online), wear rugged shoes you can get wet, bring a camera, don’t get stranded. You will find copious anemone, tiny crabs, small fishes, some starfish and more. Another free Oregon experience in nature!

If you are travelling the Oregon coast, Devil’s Punch Bowl is a must-see, but check the time for low tide first to get the best opportunity to observe all that the Punch Bowl has to offer. There is a parking lot above the punch bowl where you can look into the punch bowl itself, but real fun is going inside the punch bowl and looking at the tide pools that contain a variety of sea life including sea anemomes, starfish, and crabs. Plus, the beach is one of the cleanest that I have see in Oregon, and it’s beautiful on top of it. To get to the beach, head down«C“street into the«dead end» area, and there is a beach access path. Be careful as the path is quite a bit eroded just before you hit the sand. Head to the end of the beach on your left and you will need to scramble over some rocks to get to the punch bowl. Be careful because the rocks are slippery. You will probably also have to wade through a little bit of water so bring appropriate footwear. Water booties or old tennis shoes work well. Once inside the punch bowl, have fun exploring. I have gone there with other adults and kids, and everyone has enjoyed looking at everything. I brought my niece when she was 2 years old, and she was a little too young for it. Navagating the rocks inside is too challenging for very little kids, but kids over 5 should be able to handle it. However, I would keep a first aid kit with bandages just in case.
