Fantastic ocean wave action in a narrow channel leading from the larger cove to a cave. The waves thunder like bombs when they hit the cave just right. I think a lot of people miss out on the best part — four people saw us coming back from the end of the channel and asked if there was anything to see there. Yes! The narrow channel is not obvious from the lookout or from the bottom of the stairs. The loop trail to the churn is pretty scenic and well worth the time. Good ocean views and some fabulous gnarly trees. Parking and a restroom available.

nice walk, go at high tide to watch the sprays fly up and hear the deep thuds of the wake against the rocks

Another beautiful place in Oregon Coast. I might as well say the whole entire Oregon Coast is beautiful because that is what it is. I love visiting here. I came 2 times in a row. Once in 2014 and once in 2015. I am so glad my friend introduce me to this place. Its beautiful. Its a good walk with beautiful scenery. Ok I basically when photo crazy here. Yes I posted so many photos of this place on FB, that all my friends said its beautiful. Parking is free and there are many of them. This is a good place for hiking and taking pictures. Especially when the tide coming in, if you have timed it right.

This is a really cool place to visit when the tide is high. there is a rocky chasm that you can hike down to and catch the rush of water as is races up the chasm and explodes on the rocks. Be careful and use common sense if you go out on the rocks as it can be very slippery and wet. Lots of parking and a restroom as well! Definitely worth the stop!

Wow. This is very medieval looking place! We’ve arrived too early and parked there until we get a bit of light.(Not recommended) Restroom is a PLUS!!! Parking space is a PLUS!!! We were there on a early weekday so there weren’t many people around. There are little nice hiking trails. It’s far from where we live but I will definitely be coming back in the future!

We went two days in a row. The second time we walked all the way down to the bottom. You can walk on the rocks. This was awesome. I highly recommend it! The sights and sounds are amazing! I took some great photos! Be safe though. It’s slippery. Be careful leaving. Look for cars. It sits on a curve and can be tricky. They have restrooms and a little coffee shop!

It was a really pretty view off the Oregon coast. I read it was an inlet that water shot up through, creating a 30 foot splash. I did not see this and I was there during high tide(5:00); however, it may just depend on the season or day. Aside from that, it was a truly beautiful view.

The Devil’s Churn is basically churning water splashing up over the crevasses in the rock. Google Maps wasn’t as helpful in finding this place as just the basic road signs were. The geology major in me was fascinated by the igneous rock formations, no matter how dorky that is to admit. A long, winding trail takes you from the parking lot down to the churn itself. At least it was paved. However, the hike back up the hill was a little difficult right after eating a big lunch. There’s a chilly breeze off the ocean, even in late May, so bring a light jacket. Just know that by the time you climb back up, you’ll be sweating and eager to de-jacket yourself. Apparently there was a $ 5.00 fee, but we didn’t notice until we were leaving and no one mentioned it. Oh well, we’re cheapskates. This was an impressive thing to see, but it’s not worth more than a 10-minute stop.
