Woahink Lake Located a few miles south of Florence, the 820-acre Woahink Lake is the largest of the three coastal freshwater lakes within the boundary of Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park . One of the deepest in Oregon, over 74 feet (23 meters) deep, Woahink Lake is a cryptodepression lake , extending 36 feet (11 meters) below sea level. Woahink Lake was formed during the Pleistocene Epoch in the ancient delta of Siltcoos River. Because of melting glaciers, sea level rose and coastal streams became sluggish. Slow-moving streams weren't strong enough to overcome impounded water and sedimentary rocks. During the extended period of time, the sediments were abraded into the sand which, in turn, formed dunes. About 85 percent of the Woahink Lake shoreline is privately owned and only the northwestern side of the lake is situated within Jessie C. Honeyman Memorial State Park. If you travel from Florence, turn left (east) from Highway 101 onto Canary Road, cross the bridge, and near the bridge on the right, you will find a boat ramp. This spot is a favorite for scuba divers. The lake is popular for a variety of activities, including fishing. Species include large mouth bass , rainbow and coastal cutthroat trout , yellow perch , and others. The part of the state park on the east side of the highway near Woahink Lake has boat ramps, a roped-off swimming area, group tent camps, picnic areas, and a meeting hall.

Siltcoos Lake Siltcoos Lake (silt’-koos), at 3,164 acres, is the largest lake on the Oregon Coast of the United States. Fed by runoff from a basin of about 68 square miles in Douglas and Lane counties, it is located about 7 miles south of Florence and 0.5 miles east of U.S. Route 101. Its name comes from a Lower Umpqua (Siuslaw) placename, a variant of which is Tsiltcoos. The lake, with a mean elevation of 8 feet above sea level, empties into the Siltcoos River, which meanders generally west for about 3 miles to its mouth on the Pacific Ocean. A dam about a half-mile downriver regulates the lake’s outflow. Siltcoos Lake is a submerged remnant of a Siltcoos River delta that existed before the most recent ice age. The lake formed after melting glaciers caused a rise in sea level that drowned the lower reaches of Oregon’s coastal rivers. Sediments from the sluggish rivers formed sand dunes, behind which the ancestral mouths of rivers like the Siltcoos became lakes. Nearby Woahink Lake is similar remnant. Fed mainly by four small freshwater tributaries—Woahink, Fiddle, Maple, and Lane creeks—the lake is very shallow. About 80 percent of it is less than 15 feet deep, and 32 percent of it consists of shoal areas. The shallowness contributes to the lake’s eutrophic nature, related to extensive populations of Elodea, Myriophyllum, and other aquatic plants. A wide variety of warm-water fish thrive in the lake, where nutrients are plentiful, but these nutrients have also led historically to troublesome algal blooms. Recreation Siltcoos Lake is a popular destination for fishing and is home to many warm-water species as well as transient sea-going fish such as salmon and steelhead. Anglers try for bass weighing up to 9 pounds, as well as perch, catfish, crappies, bluegill, and cutthroat trout. Camping is available at several spots within a few miles of the lake. These include Tyee Campground along the Siltcoos River; Waxmyrtle and Lagoon campgrounds, accessible from Route 101 south of the lake, and Driftwood II Campground, west of Lagoon Campground. Honeyman State Park, with hundreds of campsites, is about 2 miles north along Route 101.
