Port of Bandon

The Port of Bandon offers a year-round public boat ramp located at 105 First Street in Bandon, providing convenient access to the Coquille River near its mouth on the southern Oregon coast. The facility features full marina amenities, including a crab dock, fish cleaning station, and freshwater facilities. The dual-lane ramp design allows simultaneous launches, with staging areas marked by yellow stripes and red curbs on the north side to keep traffic flowing smoothly.

This access point is ideal for exploring the lower Coquille River and nearby estuarine waters, with excellent opportunities for paddling toward Bandon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge upstream. The location offers ample parking for vehicles and trailers, and the marina's proximity to Highway 101 makes it easily accessible. From here, paddlers can explore multiple ramps further upriver (Rocky Point, Riverton, and Bryant's ramps) or venture into the scenic coastal estuarine environment where the Coquille meets the ocean.
