Sea Lion Caves near Florence, Oregon

The shoreline is very steep in this part of the Oregon Coast. You have to walk down a steep slope to get to the viewpoint. This view is to the south. Not all the sea lions go into the caves. Some are out in the sun on the shore.
These sea lions are Steller Sea Lions. They don't "bark" like California Sea Lions do.
If you look closely, you can see some of the sea lions in the water approaching the shoreline.
