Kite Surfing

Do not tell anyone you heard it here, but when the conditions are right, South Beach has some of the best “kiting” on the Oregon Coast! Visit this site and scroll down to the Newport heading.

Mike Miller Educational Park

This 45-acre park exhibits various mini-eco systems all along an educational nature trail. Visitors will enjoy seeing several types of impressive trees in this unique forest, including Sitka Spruce, Douglas Fir, Coastal Pine and Western Hemlock trees. Along the well-maintained nature trail, you will find bridges, observation decks, and places to stop and listen to bird calls and observe resident small animals. The Mike Miller loop is about a mile long and takes about an hour to complete. A truly special experience the whole family will enjoy!

Crabbing off the Newport Municipal Pier

Catch delicious Oregon Dungeness crab for dinner and make a memory you will keep forever! This pier, conveniently located near Rogue Brewery, is known to be a great place to catch abundant Dungeness crab in the summer and fall months, and red rock crab the rest of the year. The end of the pier seems to be the best place to catch crab, and you can rent boats and gear nearby at Sawyer’s Landing RV & Marina. If you prefer to just eat delicious crab, instead of catching some, see #9 below!

Aquarium Village/Shopping

Enjoy a South Beach classic experience with a visit to Aquarium Village. A family-friendly experience including shopping, dining, and entertainment opportunities (and lots of fun nautical cut-out scenes for photo ops!). Local favorite stops include Pirate’s Plunder, Rooster’s Rocks and Mollie’s Food Follie’s and Bakery.

Wolf Tree Brewing Tap Room

Located in the Wilder Corner Building in South Beach, this tap room and restaurant is popular with locals and tourists alike. Featuring an extensive list of draft beers, cider, and wine options as well as a complete menu of fabulous food, families love this dining option, and pups can join you too if there is a table available on the patio.

Rogue Brewers on the Bay

A beautiful place to stop and enjoy some of Oregon’s most-beloved craft beer! Rogue Brewers is one of the longest-operating breweries on the West Coast, having first opened their doors in 1988 in Ashland, Oregon. The Brewer’s on the Bay is a favorite outpost and overlooks Yaquina Bay. Offering a great menu of food and an extensive list of craft beer, we suggest you try some of their specialty beers that are only available at this location.

South Beach Fish Market

A seafood lover’s dream! Part fresh seafood market, part seafood restaurant and alllll delicious! We recommend this stop for their fresh caught Dungeness crab and salmon, their albacore tuna, and their famous fish-and-chips. Feel like cooking at your Meredith Lodging South Beach vacation rental instead? No problem, they can pack anything on the menu to keep it cold until you get home.

Off the Hook Bar & Grill

A favorite stop for locals and visitors – and it is easy to see why. Off the Hook offers up a welcoming and casual dining room, a menu full of delicious seafood options as well as other favorites like their massive list of specialty burgers and delicious appetizers including poutine, shrimp cocktail and loaded oyster shooters.
