When the sun is shining and the tide is low, the tidepools at Cobble Beach — located at Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area in north Newport — are a popular destination. There is an admission fee for vehicles entering at Yaquina Head, but walk-ins are free. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. to sunset on Saturday and Sunday.
