2024 Map of Newport North

About this map

The central Oregon coastline near Newport is defined by a series of prominent marine terraces and rocky headlands, most notably the lighthouse-crowned Yaquina Head. This survey of the early 21st century reveals the densest development concentrated around Nye Beach and the downtown waterfront along SW Bay Blvd, while the northern reaches maintain a string of smaller coastal communities like Agate Beach and Beverly Beach. A heavy emphasis on conservation is evident in the extensive holdings of the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge and the Oregon Islands National Wilderness, which protect the offshore Schooner Rocks and coastal cliffs.
