Beaches
90 min or more from Portland, but worth it. Unique little towns with amazing views, designed to tour.
My favorite beach town. Hike Ecola Park, see the views up there, and shop at the local boutiques and eateries in the village. 90 min drive from Portland and worth the drive. Connects to 101 , to drive north or south up and down the coast for a ways if you want to explore. Great in all weather, ofcourse.
