Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Sunset Bay State Park adventure.
Experience coastal camping with easy access to forest trails and sandy shores.
On the edge of the Pacifc Ocean, a short drive from Coos Bay, Sunset Bay State Park offers easy access to Sunset Beach, plus hiking trail access to two day-use state parks nearby: Shore Acres State Park and Cape Arago State Park. The mid-sized Sunset Bay Campground features a mix of yurts, tent sites, and RV sites, plus hot showers and flush toilets. Group sites are also available for large parties, as is an interpretive program offering guided educational experiences such as tide pool viewing and nature walks.
Sunset Bay State Park is open for day use and camping throughout the year, but things can get pretty cold and chilly outside of the summer months. July and August are particularly crowded, but once kids go back to school in September, things tend to calm down. If interested in whale-watching, consider visiting during one of the two migration seasons: December and January or April and May.
