Oregon’s Rocky Intertidal Areas - Tide Pools of the Central Oregon Coast
The Tide Pools of the Central Oregon Coast are an enchanting place for wildlife explorers to visit when the daily ocean tides retreat revealing an amazing world of colorful intertidal plants and animals thriving along the tidal seas. The Central Oregon Coast abounds with intertidal wildlife concentrated in areas either found along stretches of basalt coastlines where pockets of aquatic life are formed or in marine gardens located just offshore from sandy beach strands exposing themselves only when the tides recede. Venturing into these coastal areas offers the chance to learn more about these plants and animals and how they have adapted individually to the different zones of the intertidal shoreline. Tide pool explorers are enlivened with the beauty of nature found when journeying into these special seaside environments surrounded by pristine beaches or craggy shorelines, and beautiful surroundings of the white water surf approaching the coast. The vibrant colors gleaming from these tide pools are always thrilling, no matter what the age of the explorer.
