We are travelling down the west coast of the states and we come to Florence. And we found this place across from our motel. We did the half hour tour and it was fantastic! Its really not to be missed if your in the location of this small town. Or if your driving through, you must stop off and do... More

Like a roller coaster with an occasional blast of sand! Fun, but a half hour was enough for us old kids. Beautiful look at an amazing place.

If you're gonna be on the Oregon Coast for any amount of time at all, you just don't want to miss this place. Your kids will love it, and if you don't have any kids, it'll bring out the kid in you. Go on the big dune buggy ride and you'll laugh (and maybe scream a few times) as you... More

Recently toured the Dunes with Matt as our driver. Incredible experience! We booked the 1/2 hour tour with our kids aged 9 and 11. Weather was all over the place - even had hail at one point - but we were dressed warmly and had a blast! Next time we are booking the full hour - so worth it. Exhilarating!

This stop was a spur of the moment thing that ended up being the favorite activity of our whole trip! The dunes are beautiful and the ride is fun! Might be a little much for small kids or grandparents...

Dan was a great driver/tour guide. The sandrail ride was very exhilarating and worth every penny. The weather was not great but our family had a fantastic time, great memories and we will visit again!

We had a great time! 5 of us, 2 were kids. Grandson age 8 got the front seat, and gave Dan a big continuous thumbs up! He was very good about how both kids were enjoying themselves. We did the 1/2 hour trip and we would have loved to do more! We say request Dan!

We have been sand boarding here a few times. We have a second home in Florence and from little on our children have always wanted to go to Sandland Adventures. The staff was very accommodating. And it was a fun time. It is not only for kids or teenagers it is fun for adults too. It is a great conversational... More

We took the half hour ride that was very reasonably priced. After ten minutes, I would have been good and thought we got our moneys worth. The driver [Matt] put our six year old daughter in the front seat with him, which I thought was kind of odd, till I noticed he kept looking over at her throughout the ride... More

I took my daughter and granddaughter here when they came to visit and we all had so much fun. There are many things to do and the prices are reasonable.
