Learn about the bay, see fishing and sailboats, and view wildlife at the Coos Bay Boardwalk.

The boardwalk parallels North Bayshore Drive (U.S. Highway 101 North) in downtown, offering an interesting and short tour of the bay. The wood walkway joins with a flat, paved trail along the waterfront of roughly half a mile.
