We discovered Pacific City, a little gem in the Pacific North West, thanks to our friends Lisa and Rick and since their suggestion we have been there three times including a whole week during New Years.
It is only 5 hours from the border, amazing surfing and very little crowds. If you are looking for a big city with countless restaurants and lots of night life, Pacific City is not your place. On the other hand if you are looking for awesome surfing, no chain restaurants, very cozy breakfast places, great art galleries, an amazing Pub and local brewery and great walks with breathtaking views, head south to this small little town for a peaceful weekend or a whole season.
If you decide to go there you can not miss to go to Pelican Pub & Brewery. An award winning brewery with many kind of beers and season specials for all the tastes, including “Mother of All Storms”, “Ripetide Red”, “Tsunami Stout” among others. You can enjoy a beer with an amazing burger, deep fried calamari or any other delicious meal while enjoying the front water views.
Last time we visited, we combined it with a wine tour around Oregon Wineries. Van Duzer Vineyards, Eolla Hills Vineyards, The Eyrie Vineyards were within our tour. Consider including a wine tasting in your trip, you will discover amazing wines, affordable prices and a fun day with friends that you’ll remember.
