Start 2026 with a splash at the annual Polar Bear Plunge. Dive into the chilly waters to kick off the year with a thrill, surrounded by a supportive community and plenty of laughs at Sunset Bay State Park. The festivities kick off at 9 a.m. sharp on January 1st. Whether you plunge or cheer from the shore, this exhilarating New Year’s tradition on Oregon’s Adventure Coast is a fantastic way to start fresh and welcome the new year.
This event is not part of the official Special Olympics Oregon Polar Plunge fundraiser, but you can collect pledges on your own for your plunge and donate them to Special Olympics Oregon. Go here: https://support.soor.org/event/2026-diy-polar-plunge/e734937
