Play sand volleyball, fly kites,
explore the marine life, or just lounge or play on the beach during this all-you-can-eat,

Back by popular demand! Have fun riding up and down Oregon's amazing
sand dunes in dune buggies driven by experienced guides. When you're not on the
dunes, take a break to swim in a nearby lake, where you can also ride sand boards
and paddle-boats. Watch the sunset while roasting marshmallows over the campfire.
