Coast like a local this winter! 🌊

Locals know to keep a close eye on the water and never turn their back on the ocean. High tides bring powerful sneaker waves and unpredictable currents, so stay alert.

⚠️ Check tide schedules and weather before you go, and remember—risky days are best spent watching from a safe distance. Avoid standing near cliffs and don’t climb on driftwood; the coast can be as dangerous as it is beautiful. Respect the waves, stay safe, and enjoy the coast like a true local.

Thor’s Well 🌊 🕳️

Located near Cape Perpetua on the Oregon coast, Thor’s Well is a striking natural wonder—a seemingly bottomless sinkhole that swallows seawater. While not actually bottomless, it is dangerously captivating.

Known as the “Drainpipe of the Pacific,” Thor’s Well likely began as a sea cave carved by waves. Its collapsed roof created openings at the top and bottom, allowing the ocean to spray dramatically. Though only about 20 feet deep, it offers breathtaking views.

For the most spectacular sights, visit an hour before high tide to watch the Well fill up, especially during storms when waves crash into the hole with force.
