Attractions & Activities

Selecting a place to call home isn’t just about the structure you live in, it’s also about the activities, attractions and events that give you a connection to your community and make you proud of your hometown.

When you live in Manzanita, Mother Nature’s playground is literally at your doorstep. The quaint, seaside community is situated along seven miles of pristine shoreline perfect for kite-flying, beach combing, whale watching and sunset viewing.

On the north end of town the striking Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain plunges into the ocean and offers a mountainside trail, featuring breathtaking 360-degree views of the Oregon coastline. Oswald West State Park is also to Manzanita’s north, while Nehalem Bay State Park sits to the south.

Activities include surfing, boogie boarding, camping, horseback riding, fishing, kayaking, kite flying, birding, sunset watching, wildlife viewing and more!

The Manzanita Golf Course exploits the town’s natural beauty with a nine-hole layout that is constructed on a beautiful hillside overlooking the ocean. Fine food and wine is also characteristic of Manzanita, which is home to the Nehalem Bay Winery and dozens of tasty restaurants, bakeries, coffee shops and delis. Manzanita also offers a taste of culture with many art studios and galleries.
