Watch the Dories |
Be there when the Fishing Dories launch off the beach. We are one of only two beaches on the west coast where these brave hearts challenge the breakers to get out to the great fishing with their dories. Take advantage of our local charters to get the thrill of your life. Then give them plenty of room when you hear their horn blowing as they land their large flat bottom boats at full speed ahead.

Picnicking |
Grab some grub from one of many local eateries and take it down to the beach or one of several parks and "eat out". Food always tastes a little better with fresh air in the mixture.

Hiking and Backpacking |
We have some of the coolest hiking trails (all within walking distance).
See the forest service site for details. Cascade Head is one of the local favorites and very rewarding. |

Bicycling |

Canoe, Kayak and Motor Boating |
We are indeed the boaters paradise on the Oregon Coast. We have the Big Nestucca which is slow running with plenty of room for either canoeing, kayaking, or motoring. We have several river accesses with easy launching (see rivers link on main page). Many of our visitors paddle our large Nestucca estuary and canals. And don't forget the surf and open ocean for the daring kayakers.

Off Road Vehicles |
 Although vehicles on PC Beach must be licensed and legal for road, just a couple of miles to the north is Sandlake ORV Recreational Area with dunes the size of mountains. You can take your own or rent one (see "Sand Lake ATV Rental" in the Biz Links). See the Hebo Forest Service for permits. Even if you don't ride, watching is a blast...

Horseback Riding |
| Pacific City welcomes all horses and their people. We have a restricted and well enforced speed limit downtown with bike paths (just right for horses). There shouldn't be any spook problems and all businesses would welcome a tie off out front. Bob Straub State Park is the perfect staging area with a large asphalt parking lot with designated parked for horse trailers. There are trails all through the park which winds through the spit with access to the beach. Private horse rental is available (see "Into the Sunset Horseback" in Biz Links) or bring your own. |

Largest Monolith on West Coast |
Of the two "Haystack Rocks" on the Oregon coast, ours is the largest and most interesting.  Locals refer to the rock as Chief Kiawanda . The area was inhabited by the Nestugga Tribe up until the late 1800's with Chief Kiawanda as their leader. The Cape and Rock was referred to as "Chief Kiawanda's playground". |
