Since the 1870s, Seaside has been Oregon’s original beach town, the go-to spot for time-honored traditions like kite flying, bumper car riding, ice cream eating, and — since 1971 — meeting at the beach! Located just 79 miles west of Portland on the North Oregon Coast, Seaside is reachable in approximately 90 minutes by highways 26 and 30. Once in town, convention-goers find Seaside walkable and bikeable with lots of nearby hiking and sightseeing opportunities.
