Yaquina Bay Bridge
- Historic bridge
- Regional draw
- Newport
Yaquina Bay Bridge spans Newport’s harbor entrance with a striking sequence of steel and concrete arches.

Designed by Conde B. McCullough, the historic coastal crossing remains one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks.
The photograph shows the actual bridge across the bay. Plan a view from permitted waterfront paths or designated public viewpoints, checking current local access and weather conditions. This is a working highway bridge, so avoid stopping in traffic or entering maintenance areas. The mapped OSM feature carries the road name Oregon Coast Highway; this listing identifies the bridge itself. Nearby lighthouse and park visits have separate arrangements.
