Port Orford
A natural deep-water port, Port Orford is Oregon's only coastal port that required few man-made adaptations. The fishing fleet is hoisted from the water onto a dry dock and stored on rolling cradles to escape the rough seas whipped up by southwesterly winds.
Geographically speaking, the town is said to be the westernmost incorporated city in the contiguous United States. Recreational opportunities include scuba diving, whale watching, fishing and crabbing. Humbug Mountain State Park, 6 mi. s. on US 101, offers camping, picnicking, hiking and fishing; phone (541) 332-6774.
