2017 Map of Depoe Bay

About this map

The central Oregon coast at Depoe Bay is defined by a series of dramatic volcanic headlands and narrow coves, where the Pacific shelf meets a complex network of coastal creeks. This 2017 survey details the residential growth north of the harbor in Lincoln Beach and Coronado Shores, contrasting with the more industrial and transit-focused infrastructure like the Siletz Bay State Airport and the historic Ben Jones Bridge spanning Rocky Cr. The landscape transitions from the jagged shoreline of Cape Foulweather and Whale Cove to the elevated terrain of Siletz Hill, where the timbered ridges of the t8s r11w and t9s r11w sections overlook the Siletz River valley. Inland, water management is evident at the N Depoe Bay Reservoir, supporting the settlement patterns that have developed along the rugged littoral edge of the Pacific Ocean.
