November could be a lousy time to drive up the Oregon/Washington coast line. Cold, drizzly, foggy...really THICK fog at times, dangerous road in those weather conditions, yes, don't forget the icy roads at higher elevations. Also, in November the winter storms are moving in and high winds can be scary there.
September is by far the BEST time to drive the coast line. Perfect weather almost all the time. Traffic is lighter at that time. If you do stay overnight, we always stayed in Yachats, OR. The long sandy beach is beautiful and only a handful of people on that beach at one time. Hmmmm, but then I am talking about 15 yrs ago, too!
Plan to stop at Depot Bay and watch the waves splash over the highway. Stormy times best for that.
He who hoots with owls at night cannot soar with the eagles in the morning.
