The Port Orford Lifeboat Station (Coast Guard Station #318) was constructed in 1934 by the U.S. Coast Guard to provide lifesaving service to the southern portion of the Oregon coast, a service performed until 1970.  The Point Orford Heritage Society, working with the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, has established a museum on this historic site. The park has excellent hiking trails on the headlands affording spectacular views up and down the Pacific Coast.
