The Coquille River light aka the Bandon Lighthouse was originally lit in 1896
It assisted mariners in navigating the Coquille River's dangerous shifting sandbars.
After a decline in the shipping industry, causing a downturn in Bandon's economy, the Lighthouse was decommissioned in 1939. It was replaced with an automated light on south jetty.
