Dunes aren’t the only places that beckons to motorcyclists
 
For the ultimate off-road riding experience, check out the Winchester Trail system. It is located south of Coos Bay at milepost 251 on U.S. Highway 101. Parking is available at the staging area along the highway.

Use caution when riding this system --- mountain bikers are avid riders of these trails, too. Most of the time they can detect motorcyclists coming and make room on the trails.

Catch the action and sounds of seals and sea lions

In any harbor on the South Coast, you can see big-eyed harbor seals and whiskered sea lions as they search near the docks for tasty tidbits. If people are crabbing off the docks using fish carcasses for bait, the seals and sea lions may rise up out of the water very near the docks. They come in close to try and take the fish. It is exciting (and sometimes startling)

Visit to coast not complete without hike in old growth forest
 
Accessibility is the issue for those who want to hike an old-growth forest in Coos County. While ancient giants can be found in South Coast forests and federal lands, finding trails and roads to get to them may be a challenge.
Two of the most beautiful and accessible spots are on land owned by the Bureau of Land Management.
