*** About Thor's Well: Thor’s Well is often referred to as a "sinkhole" on the Oregon coast, though it’s more accurately described as a saltwater fountain. Located near the Cape Perpetua Scenic Area, it is famed for its ability to swallow the incoming tide only to expel it forcefully skyward. This natural spectacle is most dramatic during high tide or winter storms. Thor's Well offers photographers and nature enthusiasts a unique opportunity to witness the raw power and beauty of the Pacific Ocean in a relatively compact geological formation. The well itself is relatively dangerous to approach, emphasizing the respect humans must maintain for the natural world’s more tumultuous aspects.
