Travel about 1 1/2 hours Southwest from Portland, Oregon on the scenic Highway 101 will bring you to the coastal town of Pacific City. Here longboarders and rugged, weathered fisherman share the Pacific Ocean. The main lodging in town is The Inn at Cape Kiwanda, I would give the resort 2.5 stars. The rooms are lovely and the view is epic, but the value is lacking. We did enjoy a surfer style meal at FAT FREDDY'S DINER, down the street on Pacific Ave.
The beach has a old school feel to it as many beat up, rusted 4x4 vehicles drive right up to the ocean to deliver and pick up the Dory boats.
Hike up the sand dune and enjoy a panaromic view of the Oregon coastline. Pull on your wetsuit and enjoy the slow rolling breaking waves.
Visit the surf shops in town. Kiwanda Surf Shop
