Heading out this week for several days in Oregon and was planning on the The Dalles and Biggs areas,but my 88 y/o aunt who's going with me wants to go to the dunes in this bad weather.So I need to know what's the best area to go to from Portland. I have spent a lot of time on the coast,but it was mostly eating and wine tasting,etc.I was thinking of the Florence-Reedsport area and would drop down to Eugene and across there.
Are there better area's to go to where we can easily access both the beach and the dunes.
A word about my 88 y/o aunt as per her qualifications for travel.. Last year it was Puerto Rico and Ethiopia,a couple of years ago it was a weavers tour to Nepal,Mongolia (o'nites in yurts on the steppes) and I know she can still out walk me.

Florence area is my recommendation - try Jesse Homeyman State park.

Now,after reading a couple of articles about the coast,it looks as if we may just head to Winchester Bay and stay at the Marina...But then who knows...
