I will be visiting Eugene for work in mid-October and may be able to spend an extra day or two. I have not been to the northwest before and would like to get to the coast. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I could get to the coast from Eugene without a car and where it would be good to visit?

sorry, no way to get to the coast from eugene. have to start from another place unfortunately.

Eugene Oregon is about 60 miles from coast-actually Florence is the coastal city. Highway 126==however, you would need a car. Last time I checked the only bus going to the coast left out of Portland and traveled up and down the coast

I suggest you rent a car for a day or 2 in Eugene as the coast is not that far away and WELL worth seeing! It's beautiful and unforgetable.

I met with the team I will be with in Eugene while we were in greenville last week and we figured we would have to rent a car to get to the coast and back. Any one have any suggestions as to where to spend saturday and Sunday nights along the coast there? I haven't had much luck finding info about the best places to stay and see along the coast.
