It can be tempting to stop here just for Thor's Well and the Sprouting Horn but there is so much more to this location. Trails stretch north to Devil's Churn and take you from sandy coves to coastal forests. There is also a great visitor's center just north of the viewpoint (with trails leading down) with information about whale spotting when they are in the area.

Just north of Sea Lion Caves, this location provides a great vantage point for the waves crashing against the cliffs below. Heceta Lighthouse is position just north making it a classic photo opportunity. Sea lions and birds are common with whales surfacing just beyond the cliffs at certain times of year.
