Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In few other places is the meeting of land and sea so dramatic and beautiful as along the Oregon coast's 360-mile stretch from the Columbia River to the redwood forests spilling over the California border. Experience firsthand why residents refer to this coast as "The Edge." Moon Handbooks Coastal Oregon features lively town-by-town portraits, from the resurgent Victorian hospitality of Astoria to the family-friendly resort attractions of Seaside, the understated sophistication of Cannon Beach to the hard-working fishing harbor of Newport; extensive coverage of the outdoors with highlights of hikes through ancient rainforests, excellent fishing for salmon and steelhead, and year-round whale-watching excursions; and details of coastal cuisine, where chefs fully exploit the freshest regional ingredients, making the Oregon coast a haven for visiting gourmets. In the tradition of other regional Moon Handbooks, Coastal Oregon is engaging, thoroughly researched, and eminently useful. Highlights of coastal history, environment, politics, and local lore are intertwined with carefully selected amenities and services to guide the reader on an enriching and successful travel experience.
