Seaside,
Oregon
Seaside has it all.
Crested near the mouth of the Columbia River, it's truly where
Oregon's coastal experience begins. At it's heart, Seaside's expansive
two-mile promenade invites you to stroll unencumbered along the
panoramic Pacific Ocean. But what makes it unique, is its extraordinary
blend of recreational activities, entertainment and culture.
So, whether you're interested in exciting beach volleyball and evening cookouts,
golfing, horseback riding, exquisite food or shopping sprees through eclectic
shops and galleries. Seaside guarantees you more than just a day at the beach.
Family fun for everyone.
The City of Seaside offers something for people of all ages, and
all within a short walk or ride. Our city takes pride in being
the premier family destination on the Oregon Coast. Here's just
a short list of some favored attractions to experience when you
visit Seaside:
In the water
Surf the wild waves, kayak with sea lions, canoe, fish for salmon,
crab for dungeness or relax on a paddle boat.
On the beach
Dig for razor clams, beachcomb for Japanese floats and other treasures,
take a horseback ride at sunset, build a fire and have a cookout,
attend our world-class beach volleyball tourney or just drowse
contentedly to the rhythm of the Pacific Ocean (but don't forget
the sun block!).
And for you land lovers
Seaside bounds with a varied array of shopping opportunities-
from quaint shops to factory direct retailers. Feast on fresh seafood
or a juicy steak at any of our fine dining establishments, grab
a bag of our famous salt water taffy or enjoy a burger with the
works on the Prom(a pleasant place to experience ambiance of a
coastal town).
Outdoors
For you wilderness buffs, numerous hikes are available for viewing
the ocean form the vantage point of Tillamook Head, spying a Roosevelt
elk in our coastal mountains and experiencing the cathedral- like
qualities of an Oregon old growth forest.
History
Exciting pursuits exist for those interested in history (Seaside
was the final destination of the Lewis and Clark expedition) with
designated historical sites and museums. There are parks galore,
amusements and arcades that offer a fun evening for young and old
alike.
Accommodations, Lodging and Meetings
Seaside offers a broad range of hospitality featuring nearby state
parks, RV camps and lodging for every budget and taste. We also
have a Convention Center to accommodate your next meeting with

Culture
Founded near the end of the Lewis & Clark Trail, Seaside is
a city brimming with rich Pacific Northwest culture. Should you
choose to begin your own expedition, make sure to start it with
a stroll along our breathtaking, two-mile Promenade.
Art
In Seaside, fine works of art extend beyond our galleries and
museums. Many exist in strolls along the shores of the scenic Pacific
coast, peaceful hikes deep within the majestic forests of nearby
mountains, or in the graceful beauty of the annual gray whale migration.
In Seaside, your options are many and your cares few. Explore
quaint boutiques, dine at your choice of sidewalk cafés
or restaurants, discover the aquatic wonders of our aquarium or
simply fly a kite with your kids. The choices are many, but deciding
is half the fun.
