Spring (March – May): Quiet Beauty & Coastal Blooms


Why Go:
Spring is a peaceful time to explore the coast before the summer crowds arrive. Wildflowers bloom along coastal trails, gray whales migrate north, and temperatures start to rise.

Weather:
Mild with occasional showers. Expect highs in the 50s to low 60s °F and lush green landscapes.

Top Things to Do:

  • Hike Shore Acres State Park and see the seasonal gardens begin to bloom.
  • Spot migrating whales from Cape Arago or Simpson Reef.
  • Enjoy storm watching from your RV while staying cozy inside.

Bay Point Tip:
Take advantage of spring’s slower pace and enjoy Bay Point Landing’s indoor saltwater pool and quiet bayfront trails—perfect for morning walks or sunset strolls with fewer crowds.

Summer (June – August): Peak Season for Coastal Fun


Why Go:
This is the best time to RV the Oregon Coast if you want beach days, sunny skies, and access to local festivals and events. Families, road-trippers, and RV caravans all flock to the coast.

Weather:
Warm days and cool evenings, with average highs in the mid 60s to 70s °F. Foggy mornings often give way to sunshine.

Fall (September – November): Crisp Air & Fewer Crowds


Why Go:
Fall is a favorite among seasoned RV travelers. The weather often stays dry and pleasant through early October, and the slower pace makes it feel like a true retreat.

  • Take scenic drives along Highway 101 to see autumn colors and coastal views.

Cozy up in your RV or cabin with a warm drink or enjoy the lounge inside the Clubhouse. Fall is also a great time to bring your camera—sunsets over the bay are often spectacular this time of year.

Winter (December – February): Storm Watching & Serene Views


Why Go:
Winter brings a rugged, dramatic beauty to the Oregon Coast. It’s an underrated season for RV travel—especially if you love quiet solitude and watching waves crash from your warm, modern RV.
