Coastal treasures

Along the Oregon and Washington coasts, charming villages are filled with historic storefronts, art galleries, booksellers, souvenir stands and seasonal markets filled with locally-grown produce, artwork and handmade goods.

Artists and artisans take the time to get to know visitors as they learn the stories behind their finds.

In Coast Weekend and on the Discover Our Coast website, find features about the people behind the storefronts, as well as listings of the area’s rotating art walks, including in Astoria, Gearhart, Seaside and Ilwaco, plus information about festivals like Cannon Beach’s annual Spring Unveiling and Stormy Weather Arts Festival.

Explore more in the listings on this page to map out where to go before heading out.
