Explore Oregon’s coast with Onward Adventures! This 3-hour guided tour takes you from Seaside to Cannon Beach, blending history, scenery, and local flavor. In Seaside, we stop at landmarks like the Lewis & Clark Salt Works, the Sailors’ Grave, and the Seaside Promenade and Broadway district, with views toward Tillamook Head and the distant, mysterious Tillamook Rock Lighthouse, “Terrible Tilly.” We’ll also point out the Seaside Museum so you know where to go if you’d like to visit inside on your own later. In Cannon Beach, highlights include Haystack Rock, Ecola State Park’s stunning viewpoints, and a walk through town where we’ll also pass the Cannon Beach History Center & Museum (great to return to when it’s open). Along the way, we’ll share fun activity ideas—craft shops, arcades & theatre, hiking trails, tidepooling spots—and fill the ride with stories, salt air, and scenic views. From salt pans to sea stacks—ride with Onward Adventures and see the coast like a local!
