- In Part 2 of my Visit to Bandon Oregon video series, I'll show you the old town district and marina area.
See previous Part 1 video detailing the Bullards Beach State Park where we camped - • Visit to Bandon Oregon...
Bandon has a quaint little old town where many of the historic building have been converted into shops, restaurants, art galleries and clothing boutiques.
The marina area has docks, seafood restaurants and scattered around are cool public art pieces.

I lived their for a few yrs in high school, I loved it!
We went horseback riding every day on the beach.
My friends mom owns “Bandon beach riding stables”💕🤠
Bandon is the best coastal town on the Oregon coast !! It is the best of the best!!
nwnative rain: I go to Bandon every year October, stay there more than a month, hope I still can go there this year, miss Bandon so much! ❤️ Bandon from Chicago.
@@user-hg1es4dm4y i hope so also - scary times
Tony’s crab shack is the best
OOh Bandon Oregon is one of the places that is just fun to go to and exist.. take no cares or worries with you so you can just immerse yourself in the wonderful small town feel of a coastal town and enjoy! So many lovely relaxing things there to do it like soulful! : )
River is pronounced "Cokeel", from local Native American tribe. Thanks for taking us on your journey. You are the best RV videographer on the tube!
Thanks! I thought maybe I was mispronouncing it, thought maybe it was Spanish. Had to look it up now, has some interesting history - www.mailtribune.com/article/20130430/NEWS/304300316
Great vid Ray thanks for all of your tips and trips 😎
stayed at Bandon too another great Oregon Town, fun fact Bandon burned down twice, and was the main shipping ports for good to California from Oregon
Love the vibrancy of your stills
We found Bandon about 15 years ago and vacation there every year in October. We have had some wonderful weather. We do not own an RV yet, but hope to soon. There is a small but beautiful RV park just south of Bandon. I believe it is the state park. All the spots are very private because of all the trees and bushes. Very nice bathrooms and showers, unlike California where we are from. Thank you so much for your videos. I am learning so much before making my purchase. You are keeping my dream alive. :)
Awesome place to visit! Thanks for the comment. Hope you are out there RVing soon. Cheers Ray
definitely need to put this area on our list to visit!
Thanks for the great tour Ray. Henry the Fish gets my vote.
Lived in Bandon 29 years ago. I worked at the Minute Cafe.
I used to go to the Minute Cafe every week :)
Nice Ray ! Michelle and I just love watching and seeing all the places you and Ann go to . Been doing a few projects on the old RV today . Took the hood off to take it to the paint shop to be repainted , ( Clear coat peeling off ) and got down to our lake front to do some spring cleaning of the beach ... Next is to get to our woodlot to do some spring cleaning there . Thanks for all the videos so we can dream about our future travels once Michelle retires .
Thanks, so happy you're enjoying the vids! Nice that spring is here for you finally. :)
Home town
We love that place. It's one of our favorite stops along the coast. We park the RV at that big lot you pointed out then go get food.
We lucked out and got some abnormally warm spring weather, was awesome!
Angie's one lucky pup. Thank you for taking us along for the journey. Looks like a great place to visit.
She sure is! :)
FYI it is pronounced Ko keel. We used to live there. We loved it there. Friendly little town.
Thanks! found this:
How Do You Pronounce That?
People encountering the Coquille Indian Tribe are often puzzled about the pronunciation of our name. The southwestern Oregon town of Coquille and the nearby Coquille River are both pronounced “ko-keel.” So why does the Tribe pronounce its name “ko-kwel”?
The history behind that question is complex, but here’s a shorthand version
Our ancestors traditionally trapped and ate lamprey, an eel-like fish. One name for the lamprey was “scoquel.”
As fur traders and settlers moved into Western Oregon, the river and the people living near it became known as “Coquell” or “Coquelle.”
Early treaties identified the tribe as “Coquille” - spelled like the French word for “shell.”
Sometime after a city of that name was established, the pronunciation shifted from “ko-kwel” to “ko-keel.” (Local merchants reportedly wanted to sound fancier.)
Today, the town and river are “ko-keel,” but the Tribe is “ko-kwel.”
Wonderful place!
Hey, nice video, we've been there with my family several times, but never so early in the morning and it's a very nice place, thanks for sharing the video.
Sure is, you're welcome - Ray
Nice camera work. Great sense of place. Thank you! 💥
That’s an amazing little coastal town.
Re visiting this video. My wife and I honeymooned here 10 years ago and we return every year. Edgewater is fantastic , Bandon fish market is our favorite. By the way, if you are in Palm Desert or la Quinta, Fishermans Market is great for fish . Be prepared to wait during happy hour. I'm from pacific northwest and a fish snob.... It gets a solid thumbs up. Thanks for the views.
Love that place, they also have a great petting Farm for families.
I think we visited that a number of years ago, just south. It had monkeys and some big cats and elk. Ame got to pet a baby possum.
In the late 60's I lived on 'Lower Four Mile Road" and that is now where that "Petting Farm" is located. While living there, I delivered propane. This is not something native Oregonians use, but relocated Californians who liked natural gas and are the primary users.
Great video Ray. Love the way you capture the "flavor" of the area.
+Fred Pankhurst Thanks!

This town looks so peaceful and laid back. I've never been there, but I knew someone who lives there and it's strange seeing it, and getting the feel, because she is someone who would dress everyday like she was headed to a Mardi Gras parade wearing too much caked-on makeup and flashy clothes. I'm sure she had to stand out in such a small community.
really enjoy your videos. on a side note, are you running a tuner on your diesel?
Thanks! Our truck is a 94 vintage Ford 7.3L the engine is all mechanically tuned, no computer. :)
Reminds me of beach city from Steven universe.
I grew up here. I miss it more than anything..
I grew up near by and always ran away to Bandon it was like a sanctuary growing up miss it too : )
