Bandon is a gorgeous coastal town in Oregon, known for its scenic rocky coastline, gorgeous golf courses, and outdoor activities. The perfect destination for any avid golfer or outdoorsman, it’s also a very quick trip, making it perfect for a weekend getaway. At only 698 nautical miles from San Diego, a charter flight to OTH will take you to Oregon in only 2 hours and 15 minutes.
Destination Highlights
The Bandon Dunes Golf Resort is a must-visit destination for any golfer. There are five different courses to play, each built atop sand dunes that overlook the Pacific. The natural rugged terrain lays the groundwork for the courses, making each shot and hole unique and the views unbeatable. The resort refers to its courses as “true links courses,” meaning that they are completely based on the natural terrain and not dependent on man-made hazards or conditions.
Bandon is also an ideal destination for people who enjoy everything that the outdoors can offer. There are countless walking trails along the coastline and many opportunities for wildlife viewing, particularly whale and bird watching. Face Rock is a common stop during a trip to Bandon, and is a place steeped in history of the native American Indians who lived there in the past. The more adventurous can enjoy wind or kite surfing, with an experience that rivals that of the most popular windsurfing destinations in the U.S., including Maui.
In the evenings, relax with a glass of wine from the nearby Rogue Valley region, or stop by one of the town’s restaurants. In Bandon, seafood is always a good choice for dinner with fresh catches coming in throughout the day. Want to catch your own meal? Bandon offers deep sea charter fishing trips, where you’re likely to catch a variety of rockfish, yellowtail, halibut, or other Pacific sportfish.
How to Get There
The Cessna CJ3 can comfortably accommodate 6 travelers with their golf clubs, and its high cruising speed and easy-to-handle controls make it a favorite of many pilots. For larger groups, we recommend the Cessna Citation Sovereign. Called the “Best of the Business Aircraft Super Midsize” by the Robb Report, the Sovereign has the ability to take larger groups (with golf clubs in tow) to Bandon in extreme comfort.
