We often get asked “Where are the best places to find agates in Oregon?”
Our favorite answer is agate hunting the Oregon Coast of course! We might be a little biased but some of the best and easiest agate hunting in Oregon is found on the central and southern Oregon coast due to the waves eroding ancient volcanoes, springs and other geology leaving behind agates for you to find simply by taking a walk on a beautiful beach.
