About the Business
Bandon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge, located at 83673 North Bank Lane in Bandon, Oregon, is a picturesque park and tourist attraction that offers a year-round opportunity to observe a variety of wildlife. From migrating shorebirds to resident songbirds, land mammals to marine mammals, and other amphibious life, visitors can enjoy the diverse ecosystem of the refuge. Established in 1983, the refuge is situated along the southern Oregon coast near the Coquille River and the city of Bandon.
The refuge features invertebrate-laden mudflats that attract tens of thousands of shorebirds during migration seasons, as well as providing sanctuary for young salmon and trout in the estuary's tidal channels. With two public trails, viewing platforms, and hunting and fishing opportunities, Bandon Marsh Refuge offers a unique outdoor experience for nature enthusiasts.
Managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the refuge is part of the National Wildlife Refuge System, which aims to conserve and monitor plants and wildlife, manage and restore habitats, and provide outdoor recreation for the public. The diverse habitats within the refuge, including salt marshes, mudflats, sandy beaches, and sea grass beds, support a wide range of plant and animal species.
Visitors can also get involved in conservation efforts at Bandon Marsh NWR by helping in the pollinator garden or learning about habitat management techniques used to enhance wildlife values. The refuge staff works with other organizations to protect and enhance fish, wildlife, plants, and habitats for the benefit of the American people.

Reviews
"Awesome place to come see wildlife and plants to grasses but look and don't touch!"
"Great place to look at birds on the river."
"Had this whole place to ourselves. Long grasses waving in the wind. Some birds flying overhead and pretty insects. Marshy area with standing water. Short path in."
"Bandon Marsh is absolutely beautiful!! Such a diverse group of birds, mammals, and plants life. Definitely worth stopping and seeing and taking some pictures of the wide array of beautiful and interesting plants and animals."
