Port Orford's coastal scenery makes it a great spot for many types of camping. Cape Blanco State Park Campground puts you right on Oregon's rugged coastline with hiking trails and some interesting historic sites nearby. Over at Bullards Beach State Park Campground, you'll find spots for tents and RVs, plus it's a short walk to the beach and Bandon town. Jackson State Park tends to be quieter if you want some peace and quiet. You should know that reservations might be necessary, especially in summer when it gets busy. Check on fire rules before you go since they change with conditions. Humbug Mountain State Park Campground sits close to the Oregon Coastal Trail and has good hiking. Face Rock State Park is worth checking out for its unusual rock formations and good views. Making reservations is smart, particularly on weekends and holidays. Late spring or early fall usually has better weather and fewer people. Fishing is good in the local rivers if that's your thing. Some campgrounds don't have many facilities, so bring what you need. RVers can get full hookups at Bullards Beach State Park Campground. Just remember you can't stay longer than 14 days at most sites.
