Home of the Pacific City Dory Fleet, a trip to our small coastal town isn’t complete without a fishing trip. Book with a local charter company for the best experience.
Group Tours
If you want a local to show you all the stops in Pacific City, along more miles of the coast, or even spend a day wine tasting in the valley and return for a sunset on the beach, be sure to book Oregon Coast Tours. Create your own custom itinerary and leave your keys behind. You’ll enjoy all the views and no stress from driving.
