Walk the Prom

Seaside’s 1.5-mile oceanfront ­Promenade and its famous automobile Turnaround at the beach are among ­Oregon’s most famous landmarks. ­Dating from the 1920s, the Prom is the perfect place for a­­ ­morning jog, a casual walk, a bicycle ride or just enjoying Seaside’s best people-watching. Take in the ­spectacular panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, ­beachgrass-covered dunes and the rainforest-covered Tillamook Head as you stroll past oceanfront homes and resorts.

Trace the footsteps of famed explorers Lewis and Clark with a visit to their reconstructed salt-making camp or visit a family favorite, the Seaside Aquarium, a classic coastal attraction here for over 70 years. Both attractions are just steps away from the Prom. The Turnaround and the Prom both offer convenient oceanfront access and views for wheelchairs and strollers.
