Head on down the highway 18 to the stunningly beautiful Oregon Coast. Spend the day tidepooling, taking pictures, playing in the surf, and relaxing on the beach. Build a bonfire and listen to the crashing waves after watching the sun slowly sink into the sea in a fiery array of colors and watch as the stars come out one by one, while basking in the warmth of good company and a crackling fire.
