Create an itinerary including Heceta Beach
Sitting under a massive old bridge, Heceta Beach is a popular holiday destination for families. This long sandy beach with several access points stretches for 11 km (7 mi) along Oregon shoreline. Keep an eye open for sand dollars and whales. A moderate, uphill trek to the lighthouse is worth the views. Amenities include restrooms and picnic tables. Bring a windbreaker. Plan to see Heceta Beach and other attractions that appeal to you using our Florence online trip itinerary builder.
