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.

  • 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. (it)
