Coos County's iconic Coquille River Lighthouse, north of Bandon in Bullards Beach State Park.


The Coos Bay, Oregon graticule is located around latitude 43, longitude -124. Roughly 3/4 of this graticule is covered by the Pacific Ocean. Behind a usually wide strip of coastal dunes, forested hills inland are intercut by narrow agricultural valleys. The twin cities of Coos Bay and North Bend make up the largest population center, but the graticule is home to several other towns as well, including Reedsport, Florence, Bandon, Myrtle Point, and Coquille, the seat of Coos County.
