After wandering the beach at Cape Kiwanda State Park we drove around the cape to Pacific City and the beach there where we watched fishing dories coming in and the pelicans fishing.

Leaving the beach on the north side of Cape Kiwanda, we drove around the cape to Pacific City and the beach there where we watched the fishing dories coming in and the Pelicans fishing.

After wandering the beach north of Cape Kiwanda we drove to the south side of the cape and to the beach at Pacific City where we watch the surf, the fishing dories coming in and the Pelicans fishing. The dories are launched from and come back in to the beach. Coming in they land at very high speed and run up on the sand. This one was coming in near the cape itself. These fishing dories have a long history at Pacific City. Most of them are now run as charters, but originally they were the city's fishing fleet and livelihood.

This was taken at Cape Kiwanda State Park in Oregon. We had stopped there the second morning of our trip along the Oregon coast and had driven down on to the beach while waiting for the fog to lift.

These photos were taken on a foggy morning in Cape Kiwanda State Park in Oregon. We had driven down on the beach and were wandering the area waiting for the fog to lift before going on.

Having spent the night in a quiet layby south of Cape Meares, Oregon, we had our usual travel breakfast of oatmeal and coffee and then headed on south to Cape Kiwanda where we drove down on the beach and wandered a while in the foggy. Because the morning was overcast, we were in no hurry to get anywhere, but later the fog would clear and we would make it down the coast nearly as far as the California border.
