As a lifelong Oregonian, I have to agree with OregonMouse that trying to swim in the Pacific ocean at the Oregon coast is a very foolish idea, no matter how warm the weather might be. I should note here that 77 degrees Fahrenheit or 25 centigrade air temperature would be considered a heat wave of major proportions. Even a bit of thigh-to-waist-deep frolicking in the waves will chill you very rapidly and those who try it usually retreat in ten minutes or less.

But it is a beautiful coastline. It ranks up with the best in the world for scenery.
