What to Do in Seaside

Learn More

The state's oldest ocean resort community, Seaside has attracted vacationers since its first guesthouse was completed in the 1850s. The highlight is the Promenade, referred to locally as “The Prom.” The concrete structure was built in 1920 to replace a wooden boardwalk. Walkers, joggers and bicyclists make good use of the 1.8-mile path that parallels the Pacific Ocean. The sights include beach grass and dunes as well as nearby Tillamook Head and Tillamook Rock Lighthouse in the distance. Benches and coin-operated telescopes along the way invite you to take your time while absorbing the coastal views. Broadway, the town's main street, ends at the Prom's historic automobile turnaround.
