Bandon State Natural Area is a state park in the U.S. state of Oregon. It is administered by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department. The 879-acre (356 ha) park lies west of U.S. Route 101, off Beach Loop Drive, about 5 miles (8 km) south of Bandon. The Oregon Coast Trail passes through the park.

The park is open year-round; annual day-use visitation is about 27,000. Amenities include beach access, hiking trails, birdwatching spots, fishing access, restrooms, parking, and picnic tables. The average elevation is about 26 feet (8 m) above sea level.

Three separate entrances lead to separate parking areas within the park. The two to the south offer beach access but no other amenities. The third, Devil's Kitchen, has picnic tables, seating benches, paths to the beach, and restrooms.
