I'll add the Ho River rainforest on the Olympic Peninsula to the list. Another place near Cannon Beach is the "Third" beach, if I recall correctly. Its a bit of a hike through the woods.
Be sure to heed the warnings about the tides!

Hard to pick any particular spot. The whole Oregon and Washington coast is beautiful!

Be sure to visit Mo's seafood in Oregon.

Having worked two different Volunteering stints at Newport, you really can't pick a bad spot. Newport is roughly centered on the Oregon part of the coast. It's all got it's moments and times, but it's wonderful!

Shore Acers State Park OR for big surf and crashing waves

Cape Arago State Park near North Bend and Depot Bay are my favorites.

Brandon has a golf course “Brandon Dunes” .., right on the coast ... it’s to die for ....great shot of the “Sea Stacks” ...

If you get to Bandon stop by the cheese factory and buy to curds. You'll never forget them.

Hi Lady, you'll wonder why you waited so long. Washington and Oregon Coasts are fabulous. I can't go into town by town, but it is a very traveled trip and I think you will find more than you can handle in paper and video guides. High points, Spend some time in Settle. Take teh ferries all around, just for the fun and off shore view of it. remember high shutter speeds and avoiding bracing on shop structures because of inevitable engine vibrations. Even at a dead stop the generators are BIG and the vibes will trasfer through your body.

The Olympic Peninsula is fantastic, and somewhat overlooked. Also the shoreline near Sandy, WA just West of teh SEATAC airport, for nice tranquil shoreline.

In Oregon, a side trip to Crater Lake is a once and only experience--research and calculate. Don't fail to drive 50-100 miles East on the Columbia River, it is impressive. The Pacific Coast is dramatic, rugged and Rocky, like I mean BIG formations.

Te California Coast is similar. Some popular stops are Ft Brag, I like Ukiah on 101 a little inland.

The Pacific Coast Highway or whatever it morphs into right along the cost can become very tedious driving in a large Vehicle--like a Big 1970 Impala Station wagon, no less a motor home. I suggest you pick and choose the spots--there are VERY many--and spend some time on 101 to make some time and drive straight for over 200 feet without looking sown a sheer cliff.

For CA Wine Country, Windsor is right on 101. It is accessible to all of Sonoma and Napa Counties. If you've got a toad, great, or maybe rent a car to get around. OR, splurge in a limo or limo-bus winery tour.

There used to be AN RV Park in San Francisco near the Cal Trans (train) depot across form teh Giants Stadium. My be gone now. SF is NO PLACE for a Motor home. In'n'out. Use great public transportation and Uber and TAXI's.

The Pacific Coast Highway (Ca 1) south from SF is great. Stop for sure and Half Moon Bay, check out the surfing just south, Davenport, Santa Cruz and Monterey are super too.

The State Beach and State Park Campgrounds are terrific, but i suspect have minimal RV support beyond Electricity. Plenty of info available. These states are not shy and they provide good info online.

Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Each area of the Oregon coast offers different opportunities for photographers. There are lighthouses, rock formations, tide pools, and other scenery depending on how long you have and what you like to photograph. some areas offer hiking of various difficulties. The northern Oregon coast (Astoria to Lincoln City), the central Oregon coast (Lincoln City to Florence) and the southern Oregon coast (Florence to Brooking), all offer great things and could take several days to experience. I know I have not been specific, but if you could give your starting point and how many days you have total. Over 400 miles of the Oregon coast is a lot of area to cover in a few days.

Mo's is overrated and I would not recommend it. There are much better places to eat on the Oregon coast.

My suggestion is US 101 from Eureka north to the Columbia River. You be your guide there and don't be afraid to ask the locals as I found there very helpful for side trips.

I lived in Crescent City for 25+ years.

David in Dallas Loc: Dallas, Texas, USA

Tillamook and Astoria are good places to visit. Pacific City has one of 2 Haystack Rocks and a dory fleet. The MacKenzie River is interesting.

I don't RV so no help there.

I visited my mother in Grants Pass Oregon this summer and planned to shoot the coast while I was there. One of the books I purchase through Amazon to prepare for this trip was:
