Astoria

This coastal city seems like it was plucked right out of a storybook.

Perched at the mouth of the mighty Columbia River, Astoria is Oregon’s oldest city and the first permanent U.S. settlement west of the Rockies.

With Victorian-era homes etched into hills overlooking the Columbia River, this picturesque settlement is a port city with Scandinavian flavor. Surrounded by forests, boasting three rivers and situated a stone’s throw away from the Pacific, Astoria is a fishing village-meets-Victoriana, chockablock with forts, museums and great local brews.

You won’t want to miss the Astoria Column, Columbia River Maritime Museum or the Astoria Riverwalk, where you’ll pass old canneries, breweries, shops and the historic trolley rolling by.
