Fun Facts

This spot in Depoe Bay is renowned for its excellent views of migrating gray whales, especially during the peak seasons of winter and spring.

The city is named after Charles 'Charley' Depot, a Siletz Indian who was a prominent figure in the area during the late 19th century.

This tiny harbor, measuring just six acres, is a unique feature of the town and is often bustling with fishing and whale-watching boats.

The rugged coastline around Depoe Bay features fascinating basalt formations, a result of ancient lava flows meeting the ocean.

The center provides educational resources and live updates on whale sightings, making it a perfect complement to the scenic views from Alsea Avenue.
