  • This video will provide 10 REASONS WHY PEOPLE LOVE FLORENCE OREGON USA. These are not ALL the reasons why people love Florence and if you have a reason why you love Florence, put it in the comment section and I will make another video.
    1. Florence Beaches. Heceta Beach. North and South Jetty Beach
    2. Sea Lion Caves
    3. Bed and Breakfast at the Heceta Head Lighthouse
    4. Hike the Hobbit Trail
    5. Camp at Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park
    6. Historic Old Town Florence
    7. Sandboard at Sand Master Park
    8. Darlingtonia State Natural Site
    9. Whale Watching
    10. Siuslaw River Bridge
    Florence is a small city at the mouth of the Siuslaw River, on the Oregon coast. Its vast Sea Lion Caves are home to Steller sea lions. Nearby, trails around the restored 19th-century Heceta Head Lighthouse offer views of seabirds and migrating whales. Shops and galleries fill the city’s Historic Old Town district. Across the river are the towering sand mounds of the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area.

    I grew up in Waldport, Oregon, as the sun of a "gippo" logger. We drove 101 south through Florence every day for about five years to the sawmill just south. Florence is, and will always be, my favorite!! Here I am 76 yrs old and longing to return and assume all the memories and life's gifts to return. I lost my soulmate last July to Cancer and when we traveled north during the summer from the damn crematorium here in Southern Arizona, Florence was always on our agenda. Maybe, with some very frugal budget help, I will be able to either live there again or travel there each Southern Arizona Summer. God, I miss may be loved time growing up on the central Oregon Coast.

    I retired here 3 years ago from another State. Florence beaches, campgrounds, lakes, sand dunes all amazing. Small town community with people who are friendly, down to earth and respect one another and the environment. You absolutely must tolerate rain (lots) Wind (very windy) and sand !
    to live here. We love Florence

      Cindy, does it ever come up, how Florence, Oregon got its name? Apparently it's still up for debate. Just curious what your take on it is.

    I have been living in Florence for nine years. My folks retired here in 1992 and I move down here to take care of them when the time came. I have come to love this town and community and it’s going to be my permanent home. It is a popular retirement destination. It has so much community camaraderie. I have never seen such a small town have so many activities. The volunteer opportunities are great stemming from environmental to transporting cancer patients to their treatments free (which is something I do). We are also known for having exploded a whale disastrously in 1978 that you can Google. We now have a park named the “The Exploding Whale Park”.
    The narrator does a good job except his pronunciation of Oregon. This is a sore point for us Oregonians. Ory-gun Is the proper pronunciation

    Florence is the Sandboarding Capital of the World and the home to the very first sandboarding park, Sand Master Park. With a 40 mile stretch of coastal dunes it's no wonder the Oregon coast is sandboard central!!

    Florence, Oregon.
    How it got its name is still up for debate.
    Either named from a shipwreck, near there, and the nameplate of "Florence" from the wrecked ship.
    Or, named for 1858-1860, Lane County, Oregon, State Senator, Albert B. Florence.
    It would almost make sense that was named for Albert B. Florence, but the Siuslaw Pioneer Museum in Florence, Oregon, highly disputes that.
    I think literature actually proves otherwise and that it was named for the Senator, but it's very difficult to get to the bottom of this.
