	Depoe Bay
The name "Depoe Bay" is derived from Charley DePoe, a Siletz Native American of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz. He was known as "Old Charley."

Depoe Bay is located in Lincoln County, nine miles north of Newport, between Gleneden Beach and Otter Rock along Highway 101, near Cape Foulweather. Along the sea wall north of Depoe Bay's harbor, natural rock tubes are flooded by the incoming tide and spout geyser-like sprays. At times, these streams arch over Highway 101, dousing vehicles and visitors alike. Five state park or wayside areas are nearby on Highway 101. All afore mentioned sites offer spectacular coastal views.

The harbor (if you can call it one), exits to the Pacific Ocean underneath the highway a very short distance away.

Depoe Bay itself is reputed to being the smallest harbor in the world. The U.S. Coast Guard maintains a station at Depoe Bay. Fishing is in abundance for Depoe Bay; salmon, halibut, flounder and many other species of bottom fish are sought throughout the year by sport & commercial fisherman alike. There are also charter boats available to the public for fishing, crabbing and whale watching excursions.

William Depoe a.k.a Chief Depoe was Charley’s grandson who resided in the bay until his death a few years ago. William Depoe is buried right next to the founder of Depoe Bay , (Online Highway's contributor), Autumn DePoe's great-great-great grandfather...Charley DePoe at the Confederated Tribes of Siletz tribal cemetery on Government Hill in Siletz, Oregon.
