    Tips

    September 7, 2023

    During winter storms, the ocean crashes into a colossal punch bowl-shaped rock formation, creating a thunderous spectacle. This geological wonder, shaped by nature's force, is a perfect spot for whale-watching tide pool exploration and picnics.

      Interesting at high tide with onshore wind

        Devils Punch Bowl State Natural Area is a state park on the coast of the US state of Oregon. The park is located eight miles north of Newport in Lincoln County, about a quarter mile from Highway 101. There is a picnic area within the 8-acre park, and a path leads from the cliffs to a sandy stretch of beach with tide pools. At the center of the state park lies a large natural basin cut into the rocky shoreline and connected to the Pacific Ocean by two tunnels. When the waves splash loudly into this pool, called the Devils Punchbowl, at high tide, the water is swirled around and fountains of spray spray into the sky. The basin is believed to have been formed by the collapse of two caves created by wind and tides. The stretch of beach south of the state park offers good surfing conditions, with a funnel-like rock called Gull Rock about a half-mile offshore. There are at least 17 large rocks off the coast that are part of the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge. Because the park offers sweeping panoramic views of the ocean, it is a very popular spot for observing gray whale migration in spring and fall.
