Cape Perpetua on the Oregon coast, an amazingly beautiful place. The lava rocks greet the Pacific and the pounding of the waves never stops. Here water explodes up through a crack in the rocks.

Cape Perpetua was named by Captain Cook who sailed up the coast in 1778. His ship got stuck in a storm and they looked at this same headland for 5 days.
