Spending Time in Seaside, Oregon

Eric and I visited Seaside briefly in 2014.  We visited Seaside several times during our stay at Thousand Trails Seaside RV Campground, 

Lewis & Clark's Corps of

 Discovery camped near

 Seaside at Fort Clatsop

during the winter of 

1805-1806.

The beach & the elevated

promanade on the left

There are always people

walking on the beach.

Walking past the Aquarium.

Birds face eachother

on this fenceline.

A beautifully landscaped

house with an ocean view.

This fixer-upper is for sale.

The For Sale sign is printed

on a study mesh to allow

the wind to blow through it.

This telephone pole is

decorated with knit

& crocheted sea 

creatures.  

One of the ocean-front

hotels

Eric & I walk on this

handicap accessible

path to the beach.

The lighter colored sand

"moves" as the wind 

sweeps the beach.

Mo's Seafood & Chowder

The decor is casual

Eric with a glass of Rogue

Dead Guy Ale & our lunch:

Clam Chowder, Fried Clam

Stips & Onion Rings

Lunch was great!  Now we know why Mo's Seafood & Clam Chowder is so highly rated.

Walking along Broadway....

Bumper Cars

Tilt-A-Whirl

A young woman plays

the Harp

Tsunami Sandwich Company

Funland has an arcade

& food.

On another visit to Seaside...

Eric & I went to Dooger's

Seafood & Grill to try

their Menu selections.

The decor is traditional, with

 many beach-themed

 paintings.

Eric with his Alaskan Brewing

Company Amber Ale & 

my Windmere Brothers 

American Hefeweizen.  

Haddock Ceviche & Seared

Ahi Tuna with Salsa

Clam Chowder &

Oyster Crackers

Dungeness Crab Legs with

Butter, Cocktail Sauce &

Toasted Bread

Wow!  Every dish is perfectly prepared and dee-licious!

Because we tried different foods, I am not going to try to rank Mo's and Dooger's.  I can tell you that the Clam Chowders are different recipes, and each one is great.

SISU Brewing Company

has an impressive menu.

Sadly, the Beer Page is

unreadable.

Seaside Carousel Mall

Seaside has done a great job promoting its beachfront.  The elevated promenade is concrete, level, and wide.  People stroll, jog, and ride bikes there.

There are many things to do here: games, rides, lots of food, shopping...  What I liked the most during my visits was the people watching.
