A favorite place when I lived in Oregon, and I didn't frequent enough, was
Port Orford Heads State Park. Located on a bluff above the city, the park has
three main walking trails: the Cove, Tower and Headland trails. From each of these
vantage points (at the right time of year) one can see commercial fishing boats,
orcas, gray whales, California and Steller's sea lions, and various seabirds.
The Headland Trail offers an unrestricted view of Cape Blanco to the north and
is a popular whale watching spot during the fall.
