Depoe Bay, Oregon: Whale Watching, Fresh Seafood, and Antique Shops

Depoe Bay rests on Oregon's coast, roughly two hours south of Portland. At just six acres, it's been dubbed the world's smallest harbor. In the springtime, gray whales migrate along the rocky coast. Other marine life inhabits the waters, including sea lions, porpoise, and seals. Boiler Bay State Scenic Viewpoint provides a great spot for watching albatross and pelicans dive into the tumultuous waters. Since the seawall extends through Depoe Bay's quaint downtown area, it's easy to take in ocean views from almost anywhere in town.

Many of the mom-and-pop restaurants in Depoe Bay serve fresh seafood and clam chowder, and boutiques sell souvenir lighthouses and other knickknacks. There are also antique shops, art galleries, and studios where you can see artists crafting blown-glass sculptures.
