Connect to a Remarkable Region

The Coastal Environments Learning Network (CELN) links a variety of unique sites to tell the story of the landscape and people of Oregon's South Coast.

From forests to the sea, CELN sites are selected to represent the region's natural diversity. These sites offer interpretive opportunities for residents and visitors to investigate and experience the area's natural history, including the complex relationships between the landscape and the people.

There is more specific information on planning your exploration in Connections: What Place Will You Discover Next? and on the descriptive CELN Coastal Environment site pages. And tour the Finder Map for site locations and to track your travels.

CELN is a project of Oregon Coastal Environments Awareness Network (OCEAN), a non-profit organization dedicated to planning, facilitating, and promoting programs on the South Coast's natural and cultural resources. For residents and visitors alike, OCEAN's mission is to increase awareness, understanding, knowledge, and appreciation of resource management issues.
