Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Encompassing acres of estuarine habitat along the Pacific Coast Scenic Byway, the Siletz Bay National Wildlife Refuge boasts mud flats, salt marsh, sloughs and forests, all of which offer food and shelter for dozens of species of shore birds, waders and ducks. Visitors come from all around the area to hike the Alder Island Nature Trail, paddle a canoe or kayak along the pristine waterways or try their hand at salmon fishing from the banks. Non-motorized boats are allowed – there is a boat launch alongside the parking area. Birders can depend on getting some great wildlife photos, especially in spring when resident bird numbers are substantially increased by migrating birds.
