The bayfront is a lot of fun to visit.There are a lot of shops to go through and it is a working harbour so you can see the ships come in and unload their catch of the day.The only problem with this is parking is not easy to get unless you want to park up on the hill and walk down to the bay front
always fun to wander down -stop at the candy shops-have lunch-check out those noise producing sea lions
This was a fun stroll lots of shops and beautiful paintings on the buildings. Also food places to eat at. Plenty of places to watch the sea lions swim in the bay or along the dock
What a fun place to spend the day exploring the different shops and tasting the great sea food. Don't forget to check out all the different attraction's.
This was one of our favorite places on our recent trip to Newport. There was so much to see and we spent quite a bit of time walking and enjoying the area. There are lots of shops and great places to eat. It was awesome to watch the fishing boats and listen to the sea lions. We went back a couple of times during our vacation in Lincoln City.
I love to walk the Bayfront. I enjoy browsing in the shops and seeing the murals and the sea lions. Sometimes I eat or get a coffee somewhere along there. It is a comforting ritual for me to walk and wander. It is a plus for visitors that there are public restrooms and parking.
Fabulous unique art pieces The stroll among shops was pleasant. Stopped for some seafood overlooking the bay.
So much to see! Murals cover some of the fish plant walls. The smell of the bay (at high tide!) is fabulous. The barking of sea lions on the breakwaters and floats is charming. Guests are enchanted!I love to go down to the bayfront when the sun hasn't quite come up. The silver of the water, the reflections on the street and the early morning laborers bring home that this is a working bayfront and has been for years. Best place in the world to be.
The affordable Local Ocean Seafood Team/restaurant is a must taste for fresh local fish & seafood perfectly prepared, well worth the wait. Crabbing from the docks, sailing in the bay, dining at the Saffron Salmon overlooking the bay, visiting the Mariner's walk &sea lions on the docks, strolling the many and varied artisan shops, candy stores, gift shops, touring cruises, and so much more. From the old style homes to the newer storefronts, the variety lets you entertain your family easily. Enjoy!
Love the bayfront, watching the boats, listening to the Sea Loins, people watching, and art galleries to check out too. Cafes, pubs, coffee shops to stop in also. You do not need to spend lots of $$, just enjoy the sights and sounds.
