Bandon Beach, Oregon - a photo on Flickriver

Bandon Beach, Oregon

            Bandon is nestled on the coast at the mouth of the Coquille River where it spills out into the vast Pacific Ocean.

Summer temperatures in Bandon rarely get much warmer than the low 70s F (peaking in August), but the sun shines almost every day, making this the perfect escape on the south coast from Willamette Valley and Eastern Oregon heat.

Bandon was founded by the Irish peer George Bennett in 1873. George Bennett, his sons Joseph and George, and George Sealey came from Bandon, Ireland. Cranberries have been grown in Bandon since 1885, when Charles McFarlin planted vines he brought from Massachusetts.

There was a single man on the beach with his camera awaiting sunset.  I am not sure what the yellow flowers were growing on the sides of the cliffs but they made a nice contrast to the image.
