Also known as the "Dungeness Crab Capital of the World," this charming little community boasts picturesque ocean, river and bay views, a variety of shops, dining and some of the friendliest folks you will ever meet.

Recreational activities include beachcombing, fishing, crabbing, boating, biking or hiking on beachside or forest trails.  Stop by the Alsea Bay Interpretive Center for a full history of the area and the famous bridges along the Oregon Coast.

Life is different here.  No traffic jams, rush hour, or crowds to deal with as you go about your daily life.  There are shops to fill your daily needs or travel 15 minutes north to Newport for an even greater selection.
