## Resource

If you’re looking for a perfect, low-key summer getaway, look no further than Florence — Oregon, that is. On this week’s episode of the Peak Northwest podcast, we explore the central Oregon coast town, home to sweeping dunes, good food and all manner of outdoor activities. Ever wanted to try sandboarding? Maybe you want to kayak a freshwater lake just off the ocean? Interested in exploring a particular species of carnivorous plants? You can find it all in Florence. Here are some highlights from this week’s show: The Florence Rhododendron Festival is the Oregon coast’s answer to Portland’s Rose Festival. Why snowboarders might be at a disadvantage when it comes to sandboarding. The best places to eat in Florence. Sea Lion Caves, Heceta Head and other sights around the area.
