Cape Foulweather Lookout Observatory and Gift Shop
Depoe Bay, OR
From collectors
From 101 South, pass the turnoff for Ottercrest. Look for a sign that says Cape Foulweather Lookout Observatory and Gift Shop. There's another sign that says to turn in "1/4" (mile?), but the turnoff is about a hundred feet later. Follow signs to observatory/ gift shop.
Gift Shop is currently open 10-4 pm Wednesday-Sunday even though Google maps says they’re “Temporarily Closed”. Gift Shop is closed during off-season, check the website for hours.
The machine is located just to the left of the entrance of the gift shop. They even made a wooden "Penny Smashing" sign that they nailed to a post up in the parking lot area. Fabulous people!
Designs are:
1) 'Yaquina Head Cape Foulweather, OR',
2) Whale Watching, Cape Foulweather, OR;
3) 'Lookout Gift shop, Cape Foulweather, OR',
4) Capt. Cook's Treasure, Cape Foulweather, OR',
