I am a 74 year-old Oregon native, and this is quite simply the best videography I've ever seen. Thank you so much for capturing the essence of Depoe Bay.
Thank You So Much!
Those drone shots of the waves!! Just awesome!!!
Pretty cool! It is such a different perspective to see them from the other side! Love adding drone scenes....it just adds to the magic.
My dog Pearl watched your lovely video with me. While I was engrossed with the surf, Pearl kept searching for Roodle. Roodle is the love of her life! She was disappointed that he wasn't in this video . I loved this video, even though Roodle wasn't in it.
Sorry Pearl.... no Roodle today! So funny that roodle has such devoted fans
OK, now you must tell us who is Roodle?
Nice job capturing the essence of Depoe Bay. I have lived in Oregon for 30 of my 60 years and have driven through Depoe Bay countless times, but you made me feel like a first time tourist watching this. Thank you!
Depoe Bay is such a great little town and a was a great place to be part of the Coast Guard family back in the 70’s. The Horn Restaurant used to be the Spouting Horn, named for the “geyser” that dumps salt water on cars parked along the sea wall, sometimes even across the street.
Would you by any chance have any photos or stories of my Grandpa, Captain Bill Wagner. He owned and chartered the Debbie Linn in the 70's. He became Harbor Master in his final days. They once named the town park after him too. This video brought many memories and tears to my eyes.

I hope he or someone else watching is able to provide you some information about your grandpa. You gave enough information that someone else might be able to help. Good luck, nice memories.
Wow. This video moved this Grandmama to tears. What a lovely dance of editing, the music the perfect drone shots and photography and your smiles. Wow, National Geographic needs to pay attention 🙏🙏❣️ Thank you for taking us/me to such spectacular places. May God bless ❌⭕, Iris and Little One 👋🐾
We are so glad you enjoyed it!
You outdid yourself today. Just beautiful and the music was perfect.
AAAAH, Yes! We LOVE Depot Bay! We stayed at the Inn At Spanish Head @ Lincoln City and Depot Bay 49 years ago on our Honeymoon, and have been there dozens of times since. Places like the Sea Hag have been there for many years. We love it and love your channel!!! Thank you for the memories! Be blessed and be safe, you kids! Love ya!
Such a Special Place!!! Congratulations on an early 50th wedding anniversary!!!
😂 and how do we spell DEPOE BAY ?!
unlike ‘Home Depot’ 😜
I love Depoe Bay. I've been there many a time and each time it renews my love of the powerful sea. The 300 mile long Oregon Coast offers pristine viewpoints along its entire length. The Oregon Coast is sparsely populated with only small towns. All of Oregon beaches are public under Oregon Law. Many deserted beaches and rocky coves await to explore with easy access from the main highway.
A bit of trivia concerning Depoe Bay.. The 1975 Classic Movie, "One Flew Over the Cuckcoo's Nest" with Jack Nicholson, had one scene film there. The mental patients on a field trip from for the asylum steal a boat and go out to sea. What a hoot!
thanks for the info, very interesting! I agree all of the oregon coast is pristine! I still have so much more to see and photograph!
Such a tiny, almost sleepy little seaside town with the most breathtaking views. The drone shots were so incredible Dave, and getting to actually see the Coast Guard ship cutting into that tiny harbor was amazing. Thanks for sharing all this beauty with us. If I ever make it to Oregon, I'm going to see this in person, and have some clam chowder in a big bread bowl next to the water..
We hope you make it! The Oregon coast is pretty special.
Stop off in Salem and I will show you around our Capital. I've lived in Oregon all my life. I once told my husband that the only other State I would live in would be Washington State.
I so love the stretch between Depoe Bay and Lincoln City- the smell of the sea, the little shops, the waysides, the roar of the crashing surf....heaven.
AGREE 100% .... I love it there too! So beautiful!
Hi again…further to our previous comment….we stopped the video half way through to comment. Now we’ve seen all of it….wow again….youre drone footage is amazing. The ‘blow holes’ jets of surf and water gushing upwards look amazing…ironically, we have one of those here in Dorset on the isle of Portland, but it only gushes when there’s a storm. You were certainly lucky to get the lifeboat entering the harbour, we were so lucky to see it 12 years ago. The lifeboat then was number 47278. Can only imagine what those waves would be like during a storm especially at high tide. Fantastic video…thanks so much for sharing….we are OAPs in our seventies now, so probably won’t be making that trip again. We love America and have had some amazing times there especially in Wyoming. Safe journey guys…take care xxx Des and Shirley.
We saw both coast guards boats coming up the coast and rushed back! We barely made it in time!! By the time we parked and RAN to get into camera position, one boat had already come through and was docked. I would LOVE to be able to watch them doing drills in the surf.
We were there in July 3 years ago, neat town. Hubby and brother went out of the harbor twice. They said it's a great experience going through the narrow opening. The waves weren't that bad, but you still got rocked around. Thanks for sharing and the memories.
I get seasick so I think I will have to skip going out of this harbor! I would love to go out and see the whales.
You have brought back my lovely memories of DePoe Bay and the Oregon coast. We live in WA and our family would vacation camping near Tillamook in a State Park campground, i think it was Cape Lookout.. That was so long ago. it was wonderful to lie in my cozy sleeping bag in a tent and listen to the sound of the surf and the fog horn and the the eerie shriek of a shoal whistle at night. We had a perfect camp! My Father was very organized and made a comfortable camp for us. We had a travel trailer and a tent under a very large tarp that kept our entire campsite dry and comfortable so we could enjoy the rainy days and nights. My Grandma came with us and she “cooked up a storm” of delicious meals. my husand an i stravled the oregon coast on our honeymoon and the best clam chowder i ever ate was in DePoe Bay. We ate in a small cozy cafe at a table at had windows down to the ground beside the. .water. it was on the water side of the stree in town We ave passed thourgh during te years but we were neer there during that high surf in the video. That was so magnificent!! At about 26 minutes the waves and the music are ethereal, and pure magic . i could gaze upon it forever. All of the scenes of the restless ocean and pounding waves are just spectacular. Thank you for this wonderful adventure in DePoe Bay, it was the next best thing to being there. in person.
How beautiful and amazing. That 🌈 ❤
So glad you got to see the coast guard boat coming into the harbor!!!
What a great day🎉❤
Absolutely spectacular!! What a cool little town. Gorgeous, gorgeous tidal display and great clam chowder too!! That was so amazing. Thanks guys!!
Take care!! 🌲☃️♥️☃️🌲
Absolutely spectacular!! What a cool little town. Gorgeous, gorgeous tidal display and great clam chowder too!! You really captured it all at it's finest. 😊👍
Thanks guys!! Take care!!
🌲☃️♥️☃️🌲
Thank You So Much!
Awesome video guys. Also the enthusiasm with how you guys present and experience makes it wonderful to watch. ❤
Thank You! We had the best time!
Spectacular drone footage, Dave! You captured all of the majesty and power of coast perfectly! I gotta' add this charming bay to our bucket list! Thank you again for sharing your advanture with us❤ Safe travels, friends❤
We are so glad you enjoyed it! We had a spectacular time!
Carrie at the helm! Could not have asked for a more spectacular show. As you said several times and now I know why!! It was spectacular!! (Incredible?!) Thank You!!!
I had the best time; the waves were EPIC! Thanks for coming along! When I was editing this video, I was thinking we could turn it into a drinking game just by the number of times I said "AWESOME"
Really excellent video! Loved watching the CG boat waiting for the right moment to enter the S curve. USCG is my favorite service. My BiL is a retired commander, and we grew up in New London.
THANK YOU! They are a truly incredible service! I might be a bit biased!
Thank y’all for including me in your fun, the ocean is so beautiful from your vantage point ❤🎉
I've been on a 44' Coast Guard boat. It was the best boat ride ever!!! My daughter's Dad was in the Coast Guard stationed at Humboldt Bay on the 82' Cutter Point Winslow at Woodley Island. After Corps school, he was transferred to Two Rock in Petaluma. I love King Tides!
Depie Bay kind of reminds me of Fort Bragg in Mendocino County. So charming!
so jealous! I never got to ride on the Coast Guard Boat!
That blowhole was incredible. And 22:20 when Carrie got sprayed---cool! 25:00+ The ocean waves pounding the rocks...wow!
On a hot day, just place a chair nearby to enjoy the refreshing seawater spray. A day at an ocean beach allows one to re-invigorate themself. Sea water is also an amazing dog wash! It refreshes and revives the skin, both for humans and dogs! For those who suffer eczema or psoriasis, sea water is curative. I once spent a few nights at a house near an ocean beach...and the gentle lapping of the ocean waves was so calming.
Witnessing the power of the sea is awe-inspiring. Yet again, you folks have found a gem worth visiting. Thanks again for your lovely video...I wish I was there to enjoy it.
THANK YOU!
LOVE THE OCEAN! Roodle is not too sure about the waves and tries to drink the salt water.
Thanks! We loved this one. My hubby is a Navy vet so was a special treat for him. Hope to see you all down the road one day. ♡ Bernie and Mandy J.
Thanks so much, Bernie and Mandy! It was a wild day! If you see us on the road, please stop to say hello!
Feels like stepping back in time. The coast is fun in the Winter.
My favorite King Tide viewing is in the crows nest visitors center at Cape Arago…
I love seeing this trip…
Thank you🌟
That was so awesome! Thank you!
WOW those rainbows! I have never seen them being formed before - incredible!!!
The rainbows were the icing on the cake!
Dang, that was insane drone footage, and the coastguard bringing the boat at the end of the video was intense. Thank you guys
You are most welcome! Getting the coast guard boat coming in was challenging! We had to hustle... both boats came in, but we missed the first boat because they were so fast!
Beautiful spot. Great shots of the Coast Guard making it look like nothing to go into the harbor. Truly skilled.
They are very skilled! It is incredible what they can do out there! We were SO HAPPY to catch them coming in. I would LOVE to see them out in the surf doing drills.
What an amazing ending with the Coast Guard boat returning into the harbor! A fantastic video of Depot Bay. Thank you.
Wow! Wow! Such great shots. Carrie got to get sprayed and Dave got to film the coast guard boats. Thank you so much for sharing this. Carrie cracked us up on how much she enjoyed the surf. Dave shops like I do.
Thank You So Much!!!
I'm not a seacoast person but wow nice to see the coast guard boats , the museum..your wave shares, explanations, and the rain bow 👏💝😇
Beautiful… my memories of Depot Bay go back 60 years but the videography you created is absolutely wonderful… thank you! and safe travels 🕊️
Thank you! Depot Bay is a special place.
Semper Paramus, Dave…I’m a crusty ol’ Navy Hospital Corpsman…retired back in early 1997 as a Senior Chief. I’ve been following y’all off & on for several years. Just ran across y’all after a year or so. Glad to find ya again. You did a great job covering this interesting location. Stay safe out there.
“Ol’ Scooter in East Texas…”
Thanks for coming back!
Depoe Bay is my favorite coastal town for all the reasons you shared in your video. Thanks for the spectacular video. The drone shots showing the waves were a treat!
I love the drone perspective....it adds to the magic of the day.
@@oneadVANtureatatime Hope to see you in Q!
Hi from wet and windy England…the one across the pond. Wow, you have brought memories flooding back. We were on a Pacific NW tour from Washington State down to California around 12 years ago. We decided to stop off in Depoe and as it happened, it was the day the Fleet of Flowers was taking place. The entrance to the harbour was a bit rough but not enough to stop the ceremony from going ahead. Wow, what a magic day and what a fabulous town. We took loads of video and photos and even saw one of the lifeboats go out with all the other craft. We walked up along the promenade exactly as you did and we stood exactly where you stood to take pictures of the entrance below and look back under the bridge at the harbour. Your drone footage was spectacular absolutely stunning watching that rough water hitting the entrance. We also have drones but unfortunately not on that occasion. Thanks again for the incredible footage…stay safe and have a wonderful vacation. Many thanks Des and Shirley.
Oh wow! I must check out the fleet of flowers! We barely caught the coast guard coming in…they are fast!
@@oneadVANtureatatime I’m pretty sure it happens on your Memorial Day.
I know I am repeating myself, when I say you two have mastered and outdid yourself from previous videos BUT this one is outstanding. The combination of the bay from all the angels with the "king tide" and music...magnificent!
Thank You So Much! It is just a special place and easy to film!
Thank you so much for this beautiful show of nature, it’s amazing just how mighty waves can be, ❤ thanks again be well..happy new year 🎉🎉🎉
Beautiful footage of the coastline here. The accompanying score is perfect for the scenery.
Thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and can’t wait to visit the area soon.
Thank you both 🎁
From Monterey Bay CA 🐋
Thank You So Much! Monterey Bay is also a really great coastal town! I would love to kayak there!
I think I found my new home 😁👍❤️. Great video! It’s just gorgeous this town ❤️ Best video ever of a seaside town 😊❤️
I have no words. Stunning footage. Thank you.
Thank You!
19:15 mark: Those waves are awesomely big! Such great drone footage. 💯👍
THANKYOU! Yes, they are! The waves were even bigger a few hours down the Oregon Coast at shore acres. Next time I want to visit there to see the monster waves.
Omg both of your joy in talking and experiencing the area was so fun! I would be right by the waves getting wet too-giggling the whole way! How fun!!!! 🌊🌊🌊
It was so much fun!
Altogether amazing!! This has got to be one of the best videos out there! The footage, drone shots, and music all came together perfectly! Y'all need medals!! Thanks so much for sharing this experience with us! Safe travels.
Thank You So Much! We LOVE this area, and I think our emotions just came through the camera!
Awesome video of a very angry ocean! Cool shots of the Coast Guard boat underway. Safe travels.😀
❤THIS is the best footage of Depot Bay on the internet. PERIOD❗️ You should sell this to the cities tourism board. AMAZING.
We're so glad you enjoyed it! I would love to do tourism work in my favorite places!! Doesn't seem much like work!
omg another American that doesn’t know how to spell DEPOE BAY! 😂
It’s not Home Depot! 🙃
Carrie and Dave you captured Depoe Bay and the King Tides beautifully!! It was also great meeting you guys! Roodle is such a h a good boy!!
Roodle really is a good boy! It was nice meeting you as well!
Wild and wicked! Glad you shot footage of the boat entering the harbor. They sure know how to read the current.
What a great video! We live in Idaho and get over there maybe every other year and it's one of our favorite places to go. I'm going to archive your video so that I can watch it whenever I can't get there personally. I swear you've taken video from absolutely every place that I would if I could. Your choice of ambiance music is perfect as well. Thank you so much, and I'll be watching your other videos. If you ever get to eastern Oregon and want to see and video the best of Hells Canyon, look me up. I'd be glad to show you the best places.
Thanks! Hells Canyon sounds amazing! We haven't done Hells Canyon yet! We also love eastern Oregon. We will primarily be on the west coast this year.... Nevada, Arizona and Maybe Oregon.
I'm in Eugene and Depoe Bay is my favorite place on Oregon's coast. Thanks for sharing your time at this place.
Love all the little shops in Depoe Bay and that chowder you ate...Sea Hag been around awhile...We used to stop yrs ago but hardly anymore as we now are in the motorhome and parking there for an RV just doesnt happen...At least not that i know of....Usually, its way more crowded than when you folks were there also ....Neat place...Stay safe, be well...
Yeah, not really motorhome friendly! And we were surprised it wasn't busier
I live in Lincoln City, about a 20-minute drive from Depoe Bay. What a great little town...Ainslee's taffy is the best, and the caramel corn shop just south of there is great. Some great food, sightseeing, and people. Gracie's Sea Hag was a good choice!
Now I wish I had bought some caramel corn! The chowder was excellent! Love this section of the oregon coast!
Great video and drone footage! I live in Oregon, but have never seen the king tides. Thank you!!
I love Depoe Bay. I never get tired of going there!
We agree!
Been there several times. Once for whale watching and another for a fishing outing, but traveled through many times. I had never seen the King Waves. AWESOME and a great job catching the view from many angles. Gorgeous waves! What a treat, since I am no longer on the West coast
I would love to go whale watching from there! It took us 3 days to get all the footage from all the different angles!
My big take away memory of Depoe Bay from some time in the '90s was sitting on one of those benches enjoying the food shops while my wife and daughters visited each and every tourist/trinket shop in that town. Very cool video of a very cool little town.
Sounds like a great memory!
Wow Carrie and Dave, this is my favorite video in two years. I loved Dave's comments of his Coast Guard life. I do hope Roodle got a bite of breadboard. Lol
Dave loved his time in the Coast Guard! I was having way too much fun dodging spouting waves and you know roodle got some chowder bread!!
Depoe Bay is great for watching king waves. My mom & I would take mom/daughter trips & we loved the coast. We use to say that it soothed & restored us. After I lost my mom in 2016 I took the trip for both of us.
I'm so sorry for your loss! What a special memory you have!
Dave calls these core memories.... ones you will never forget!
Even though the waves are wild and crazy. Its relaxing to watch them. The birds in the puddle was adorable, glad you filmed them
The ocean is such a relaxing place to watch, even when it is wild and crazy! I don't know how I saw the birds...there was so much wave craziness all around them and they didn't care one bit.
That was incredible! There's so much to love about this video. The huge waves were mesmerizing. It was cool seeing the Coast Guard boat navigate the bay entrance. But my favorite was the rainbow shooting out of the blowhole! Thanks for sharing this. Loved the music and all of the great camera and drone footage!!! Happy New Year to you!
THANK YOU!!! It was super cool seeing the Coast Guard boat making its way through the surf! The rainbow was the icing on the cake. Happy New Year!
What a beautiful video! We think it's our new favorite. The scenery and music was breath taking. In awe of what God has created! Loved the drone scenes looking back towards Depot Bay. We used to go every year on our anniversary on our way to Newport. Nice view of the Coast Guard boat the day after, and making its way back into the bay. Wow!!! Great job you two! ❤
Thank You So Much! Agree, there are so many levels of beauty that God has created! We are headed to the desert now and it is a completely different kind of sheer beauty!
The drone view looking down at the waves crashing onto the shore gives me a thought that it's God looking an admiring His creation. Very cool!
Oh I love the drone shots!!!
Love love love this video!!!
Thanks!
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous video of the pounding surf. I've vacationed at Depoe Bay, so it is exciting to see it with these massive waves!
It’s so much fun to see the power of the ocean! From a safe distance!
What a great video, spectacular, thank you!!! Happy new year to the three of you❤
Thank You! Happy New Year to you too!
What an awesome little town. Reminds us of Moro Bay and a little bit of old Lahaina on Maui. There were no restrictions on flying your drone. That's was great drone footage!
Loved the view from the water side to the shore: the white of the water against the black of the rocky shore - looked like hundreds of waterfalls. Would make a great puzzle picture.
I noticed that when I was editing! I love seeing each area we go to from the drone's perspective!
Depoe Bay is the site where the fishing trip scene from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was filmed. I live 90 minutes from there, and love to drive over in the winter. The weather is part of why I love it. It is one of the few places on the coast where you can pull off the highway, get out of your car, and say "OK Pacific, give me your best shot"!
It’s such a wild and beautiful place! If I was to live on the coast this area would be very high on my list!
Beautiful video…..that blowhole reminds me of the one on Acadia National Park in Maine….a great place to visit if you get the chance. The footage of the coast guard body navigating the harbor channel was the best part……wait for the right wave and GO……such skill to go through that spot! Very cool! I can’t imagine doing that for the first time!
THANK YOU!!! Weve been to Acadia NP but do not remember the blow hole.... now I gotta go back!
Thank you! I grew up south of there and so miss it. Maybe i will try a last trip there. All of my family and people i knew, including Capt Stan Allen of the Kingfisher are all long gone. But we all felt one there. I wish i could come home.
I hope you get to make it back, but if you don't, cherish those memories that you have!
I know a couple that were on a chartered boat out of Depoe Bay. When they returned, it took 45 minutes before there was a lull in the waves to allow entry into the harbor. That was a lot of bobbing around in the surf.
Oh gosh…. I’m getting seasick just thinking about that!
Amazing video! I was quite surprised that Dave could fly in those conditions. I would expect that big wave conditions would include big wind.
I can't imagine how many hours go into producing this. Just the time to pick out the background music is mind boggling! Thanks for sharing!
We spend a lot of time editing but it is so worth it! It was super windy the days leading up to the day of filming but light winds the day we were there! The weather was crappy all week leading up to this day! I was a VERY HAPPY camper when the sun peeked out just as we drove into town!
About 15 years ago I was in Depoe Bay on a blustery day. The surf was rolling, and one Coast Guard boat went out to "stand guard" as several fishing boats were ready to enter the harbor. Two CG rescue swimmers climbed down - one fellow on each side- of the rocky entrance. The CG boat outside on guard allowed one waiting fishing boat to enter at a time. The experience was heart pounding for those of us watching. Each boat safely made harbor. The CG guard boat then entered, and the harbor was closed for the day.
It is incredible what they can do out there! I would have loved to see that in person!
You guys did a great job capturing Depoe Bay with the drone and camera footage. Very fun to see the lifeboat negotiating the entrance of the bay. Great weather, too, with little wind. Very nice! We live up the road in Clatsop County and next year we have to remember to get down here for the King Tides. Spectacular video!
There is another king tide coming up in a few weeks. The weather was so gloomy, windy and rainy leading up to this day! We were SO HAPPY the sun peeked out just got us!
@@oneadVANtureatatime We are packing up to head back to the SW deserts. When the next King Tides hit, we'll still be here. It is pretty cool to see the tides overrun the Peter Iredale and the south jetty in Fort Stevens SP, but I have a hankering to head down the coast. Maybe next year. You guys really hit some good weather. The rain has just been unrelenting.
What a beautiful video of King tie in Depoe Bay !
Thank You!!
I need to put the king tide at DePoe Bay on my bucket list! This was amazing -- but I had to watch it three times because the crashing waves and the music kept lulling me into a nap, LOL! 😆
I’m glad you enjoyed it! It’s easy to get lulled to sleep by the ocean. I fell asleep this morning watching it! I had been up very late and then early to get the video published so I may have been a bit sleepy to start off.
: ) WOW! ! ! ! THANKS MUCH for sharing! OMG the power of the waves is UNREAL! ALL the BEST and safe travels ! ! ! Cheers : )
it was a great trip! We could watch those waves all day!
Just started a puzzle with those same colors as those rocks,waves and water.greys,blues whites...awesome
I get the blessing of Depoe Bay visits frequently. I love Tidal Rave's restaurant... Crab encrusted Halibut... mmm and it has my favorite view which you captured with drone footage. Love the Oregon coast and the people are soooo nice. Go on a whale watching tour almost every time. Have always seen whales but even if you don't the passage through that entrance is worth the trip!!!
Tidal Raves is a great spot! The view is unbeatable! And now I think a whale trip is in my future!
Loved the shots of the 47 coming in through the hole! Did you notice how they had to time it to come in on a wave. Tremendous skill and timing!
Yes it was! I would LOVE to watch them out in the surf doing drillls!
I'll be going through Depot Bay this Saturday. I'm hoping to see big waves and nice weather! I've never done the walk on the sea wall or under the 101 bridge. I will this weekend! Thanks for the great video!
Have been waiting for this episode. We saw your van parked along the sea wall in Depoe Bay. Was pretty sure that one of the drones we saw was yours. Going back for the king tide next weekend. So spectacular to see
I'm sure it was Dave flying around..... we cannot wait to go back again!
I was in Depoe Bay last Thanksgiving to watch the king tide. It was the most awesome experience to see the power of the waves. But that weekend it was wall to wall people; I had never seen that many people there.
We expected crowds as well. We were there the day before the actual king tide because it had been very stormy and windy.... we picked the right day and the weather cooperated with us. I bet it was much busier on the weekend.
We were in Depoe Bay between Christmas and New Year’s. Saw some spectacular waves. We stayed at Worldmark whale point resort.
Great video thank you so much
Oh nice! We hiked to a lookout point near there! Thanks for coming along!
This is one of my favorite places to visit! Great video and drone footage by the way. It looks like you found Tidal Raves, a restaurant north of the blow hole. They have amazing salmon chowder. It's one of our regular destinations. Also, the spit of land on the north side of the bay has a few parking areas among the houses where you can walk out to the cliff. On a recent trip there, we saw several whales within a few feet of the cliff including some youngsters. One of the locals told us that it's a 'resident' group that's there year round. If you like coffee, Pirate Coffee Company on 101 and NW Sunset St is excellent.
Thanks for all the great tips! We walked along those cliffs.... such a beatiful area! I would love to come back just to see the whales!!
My father was in the Coast Guard assigned to some station in Maryland during the Kirean war. Good choice.
Try a trip to Shore Acres during the King Tides especially when a storm is blowing! But this has always been a favorite community. We use two do a Wooden Baot Show there in April. Hopping to get it going again.
I’m going to check out Shore Acres on my next trip!
Great video! Dave would you ever be willing to do a video talking about your Coast Guard days? You mentioned Cape Disappointment and going over the bar. I am fascinated with the work that bar pilots do and would love to hear more about your experience 😅 just a thought. We live about an hour from Astoria and see all of the huge ships come in and out and that is where I learned about bar pilots. You guys are some of my faves!
You know I think we need a trip to Cape Disappointment! It would be a great video with his commentary! Thanks for the idea! I don't know if we will ever run out of things to do and see.
@ I just camped at Cape Disappointment for the first time in November and LOVED IT! It will make for a great video!
Awesome footage of the waves!
Thanks for watching! It was incredible to be there!
We love Depoe Bay! Thanks for sharing!
Depoe Bay is one of our favorite places! The Oregon Coast is nothing short of spectacular! I KNOW WE WILL BE BACK!!
25 years ago I heard about Depot Bay and always wanted to come here. But as a farmers wife that was not possible. Thanks for experiencing it for me to enjoy here.😊
We love Depoe Bay and we are glad we could share it with you!
😂3rd person on here miss spelt ‘DEPOE BAY’!
It’s not Home Depot!
Wonderful videography ❤
It was like decades ago. I been to Depot bay and had Gracies clam chowder. Thanks for the great videos!
Did everything look the same?
@oneadVANtureatatime Yes, I guess, I remember walking under the bridge and loving life. I am so grateful for travel!
I get to watch the powerful ocean from my hometown near the Mendocino Headlands. Love living here. The waves were gigantic on Dec 20th, 30 feet!
Wow! That must have been incredible. We were in awe of the waves during this King Tide! We missed the even higher waves further south! Love watching waves crash onto the shore!
September and October are the best times to visit. Kids are back in school and the weather is usually pretty nice.
You are right, the coast is much more enjoyable when the weather is nice! But the king tide’s usually don’t happen during that time! We did have a very nice day on the beach the next day.
You did a great job on these pictures.
Thank You!
That’s beautiful! Thank you for the video!
Deep sea fished out of Depoe Bay many times, crabbing and tuna fishing , bottom fishing….. sometimes tough getting over. The bar…….. I can’t imagine getting out of there during a King Tide
We call that the pucker factor! Danger and Excitement at the same time. I hope the fishing was great!
Beautiful. ❤❤🌊🌊Thank you for sharing. I haven't been able to go to the coast in 6 years and miss it so. The waves remind me of the Bible verses in the book of Job at chapter 38 verses 8-11 that speak about how God created them in the beginning: " He "barricaded the sea behind doors, When it burst out from the womb, When I clothed it with clouds, And wrapped it in thick gloom, When established my limit for it, And put its bars and doors in place, And I said, ‘You may come this far, and no farther; Here is where your proud waves will stop’?"
