Snuggled amongst the cedars at the end of Washington's Long Beach peninsula sits the Moby Dick Hotel and Oyster Farm. Overlooking Willapa Bay, this century old inn blends the congenial warmth and funky personality of a first rate bed and breakfast with the amenities often found in a larger hotel.

With its charming coastal homes, year round amusements, and lively ways to have fun, Seaside is a first rate family playground. Rain or shine it offers history that intrigues, shops to browse, and madcap activities that enthrall the young and the young at heart alike. Less than 100 miles from Portland, you arrive before anyone in the back seat asks "Mommy, Daddy, are we there yet?"

Depoe Bay, a small town located along a rugged rocky stretch of coastline off Highway 101 offers some of Oregon's best whale watching, the world's smallest navigable harbor and an obvious love of pirate lore.

Throughout the year, annual events such as the Wooden Boat Show, an Indian Style Salmon Bake, a Fish and Chips Fundraiser and a Pirate Treasure Hunt demonstrate that Depoe Bay is definitely a fishing town. In fact it was the filming location of the fishing trip sequence in the movie One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
