Seal Rock is an unincorporated coastal community in Lincoln County, Oregon, United States, between Newport and Waldport on U.S. Route 101. The community of Seal Rock is named for the Seal Rocks, a ledge of partially submerged rocks that parallel the shore for about 2.5 miles (4.0 km). In Chinook Jargon the area was called Seal Illahe, meaning "seal place" or "seal home", while "Seal Rocks" is what the locality was called in pioneer times, when it was an early resort community. The name "Seal Rock" appears to refer to the one large rock, about 20 feet (6.1 m) above water, that was formerly where hundreds of common seals and Steller sea lions would rest.

The name "Seal Rock" appears to refer to the one large rock, about 20 feet (6.1 m) above water, that was formerly where hundreds of common seals and Steller sea lions would rest. Seal Rock was the terminus of the Corvallis & Yaquina Bay Wagon Road, which was the first road to reach the Oregon Coast from the Willamette Valley. The town of Seal Rock was platted in 1887 and three blocks of hotels were built, but development lagged and the assets of the road company were transferred to the promoter of the Oregon Pacific Railway, T. Egenton Hogg. Seal Rock post office was established in 1890. Seal Rock is also the name of an address-restricted archaeological site in the vicinity that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. (en)
  • Seal Rock è una comunità costiera non incorporata nella Contea di Lincoln, Oregon, Stati Uniti, tra Newport e Waldport sulla U.S. Route 101, . La comunità prende il nome dalle Seal Rocks, una sporgenza di rocce parzialmente sommerse che parallela alla costa per circa 4 miglia (6,4 km). In lingua nativa Chinook Jargon la zona era chiamata Seal Illahe, che significa "luogo delle foche" o "casa delle foche", mentre "Seal Rocks" era il modo in cui la località veniva chiamata in tempi pionieristici, quando era una comunità di villeggiatura. Il nome "Seal Rock" sembra riferirsi all'unica grande roccia, a circa 6 metri (20 ft) sopra l'acqua, dove un tempo riposavano centinaia di foche e leoni marini. Seal Rock fu il capolinea della Corvallis & Yaquina Bay Wagon Road, che fu la prima strada per raggiungere la costa dell'Oregon dalla Willamette Valley. La città di Seal Rock fu ricostruita nel 1887 e furono costruiti tre blocchi di hotel, ma lo sviluppo ritardò e le attività della compagnia stradale furono trasferite al promotore della Oregon Pacific Railway, Thomas Egenton Hogg (1828–1898). L'ufficio postale di Seal Rock è stato fondato nel 1890. Il Seal Rock State Recreation Site è un sito diurno che include pozze di marea e un tratto di spiaggia. Seal Rock è anche il nome di un sito archeologico a indirizzo limitato nelle vicinanze che è elencato nel Registro nazionale dei luoghi storici. (it)
