Description
Coquille Point is a mainland section of the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge, which is composed mostly of small rocky offshore islets. A path from the beach leads up on the south side of Coquille Point if you want to get views from the top. There is a small trail system around the point, a picnic area, and parking.
Below the point on the beach, there's a narrow gap between the rocks that funnels the wind. Elephant Rock is the massive formation just offshore. You cannot round the point at the high point of the tide.
