Simpson Reef Overlook, located near Shore Acres State Park in Oregon, offers a prime spot to catch a glimpse of seals, sea lions, and a variety of shorebirds hanging out on Shell Island and Simpson Reef. The overlook provides a distant but impressive view of these protected areas, making it a great place to bring your binoculars or a telephoto lens for a closer look. Just roll down your windows and listen to the cacophony of barks and calls from the marine life—it's a wild experience you won't want to miss!
