Oregon Coast Highway 101
363 miles · U.S. 101 along the Oregon Coast · Most travelers split this All-American Road into multi-day sections for beaches and headlands.
The Oregon Coast Highway on U.S. 101 spans about 363 miles and is recognized as an All-American Road with continuous access to beaches, coastal towns, and headland viewpoints.
All-American Road Context
This route is one of Oregon's premier scenic corridors and is promoted statewide for coastwide itineraries rather than quick point-to-point travel.
Cannon Beach is a common northern anchor for travelers building sections of the drive before continuing south.
How To Break It Up
A full coast run usually works best over multiple days so you can include short beach walks, lighthouses, and town stopovers.
If time is limited, choose one region and focus on fewer transitions. Coastal weather and traffic can make optimistic mileage plans feel rushed.
