Bandon Beach, OR is a photographer's paradise. In fact I could hardly get a shot myself without getting other photographers in my shot! The rock formations are fascinating and look like something from another world. We spent hours walking this beach - definitely a must see if you're on the Oregon coast.

Oneonta Falls. Be prepare to swim the last segment to the falls in the winter! Dry bags are useful if you want to get your camera across without getting wet. It's worth the cold swim :)  #hiking  #weekendgetaway
