(Portland, Oregon) - The second in a series of unusual and extremely detailed books about the Oregon coast has been released: “Ultimate Oregon Coast Travel: Seaside – Gearhart. Every Beach Access, Odd Facts, Fun Finds.” Like the first book published in May about Cannon Beach, this one details every single beach access in the area, delves deep into the history of each, digs into the geology, and points out odd facts and surprising finds left and right.

Both books in the Ultimate Oregon Coast Travel series – about Cannon Beach and about the Seaside area – are the perfect guide for summer, letting you know about dozens of hidden beach spots and aspects of well known beaches you had no clue existed. Startling facts about sunsets, weather, whales, beach flotsam and more abound in both.

There is also exhaustive advice on summer travel, Fourth of July, as well as the rest of the year.

Some of what you’ll find in either or both:

• Weird two-headed sunsets, and why (Novaya Zemlya effect)
• Green flash at sunset
• What nearly destroyed the lighthouse offshore
• What crazy, even doomed structures were built in Seaside 100 years ago
• How Seaside influenced rock ‘n’ roll history
• What makes the sand glow at night sometimes?
• The frightening, fiery story behind the origin of Haystack Rock and Tillamook Head
• Why is there something called the Secret Spring? And the Secret Spring of February?
• Intense historical accounts of storms, tsunamis
• What can you find on Seaside beaches you can’t find anywhere else?

And more…..

Both books are now available as ebook or print on Amazon.com.

Written by Oregon Coast Beach Connection (BeachConnection.net) editor / publisher Andre’ Hagestedt, the Ultimate Oregon Coast Travel series will eventually number ten such extremely detailed guides about different areas of the upper half of the coastline.

The books operate on the idea you can probably enjoy these sights and beaches even more if you know what you’re looking at. Certainly, you’ll be amazed to discover what’s really going on, sometimes literally beneath your feet. Often there are objects hiding in plain sight that host a startling story. Geologically speaking, this section of the north Oregon coast is astounding. And so is its history.
