Why January is a Great Time to Get Away to the Oregon Coast
While some people prefer taking tropical vacations in June and July, other travelers prefer getting away to Oregon coast house rentals on the beach in January and February for a wintry, wonderful vacation like no other. Not only are activities like whale watching ideal in the winter, but there also isn’t as much foot traffic throughout the coastal towns during this quieter time of year. If you want to enjoy whale watching and other wonders of the ocean, and maybe even get a chance to feel like you have the whole beach to yourself, right now is the perfect time to book a last minute trip to the charming beach enclave of Lincoln City. There are plenty of great deals on Oregon coast beach rentalswaiting for you and your favorite companions to take advantage of.
Great Deals for January
It’s not too late to get great vacation deals to ring in the New Year. A-1 Beach Rentals of Lincoln City is offering a third night free for a stay in January, for example, if you book two nights in one of Lincoln City’s many charming beach vacation rentals. Oregon travelers can choose from such marvelous oceanfront properties as The Pacific Escape, a 3-bedroom home with hot tub that offers huge panoramic views and easy access to whale watching, or The Prince of Whales, an exquisite oceanfront condo located in Depoe Bay. (The Seabird Cottage and Moonbreaker, however, are excluded from this special.)
A Great Time for Whale Watching
Whale watching is one of the most compelling reasons to get away and rent a piece of ocean front property. Oregon coastal properties provide the ideal accommodations to get out early every day and see some of the most stunning creatures that grace our oceans. The Central Coast, where Lincoln City is perfectly situated, is one of the best places in the U.S. to spot gray whales, as they make their way along this stretch of the coastline to migrate south every winter. You will find whale watching charters that leave from the coast daily, and while you’re at it make sure to stop by The Whale, Sea Life and Sharks Museum in Depoe Bay. This museum is unique in that it focuses exclusively on gray whales, which you won’t find at any other museum that we know of on the planet.
Other Great Winter Vacation Activities
Aside from whale watching and enjoying some rest and relaxation in one of the many Oregon coast beach rentals around Lincoln City, you and your loved ones will find a nearly endless list of activities to enjoy around this beautiful area in the winter. The beautiful crashing waves will mesmerize you for hours, and for the more adventurous types the many miles of kayaking trails will provide more than ample space to enjoy such active pursuits. The Oregon coast is also known for sumptuous seafood, award-winning craft-brewed beers, and much more. It’s simply a great time to plan a coastal trip to the Pacific Northwest.
