Ona Beach B&B - Info & Links

FIRM POLICY: Non-smokers only!
This is a "No Smoking Anywhere" Inn. Any party that
includes smokers will be turned away and the reservation
will be considered cancelled (cancellation charges will
apply). Violators will incur a special cleaning fee of $500.
(We're sorry but we don't have enough rooms and
facilities
to set aside. Unfortunately, even if you smoke outside, the
smell is still carried in on your clothes and hair, besides
permeating all of your belongings!)

Activities
We have bicycles (2) you may use. We also have kites you may enjoy taking to the beach. There are miles and miles of
secluded beach to explore (see below). There are also wilderness roads and hiking trails in the area. Also, use our new
Sea Eagle inflatable kayak (very stable) to paddle Beaver Creek. (We'll drop you off and pick you up! It's just a mile away!)

The Beach
Ours is a beautiful, secluded and sandy beach. It is just across the road (about 100 yards) and down a 60 foot
embankment. The switch-back trail and rip-rap make it medium difficulty - but that also severely restricts the number of
people on the beach below. Easier access is a short walk (4 blocks) down the utility road to 148th street. From there the
beach is a level walk across Highway 101 - no embankment to descend (but more people). Easiest access is to drive one
mile south to Ona Beach State Park (lots of people).

The Area
The central Oregon coast has everything needed for a romantic escape or just to get away for fun and relaxation. There
are friendly communities with shopping, entertainment and fun nearby. To the north are Newport, Toledo (7 miles
inland), Gleneden Beach, Salashan, Depot Bay and Lincoln City. To the south: Seal Rock, Waldport, Yachats and
Florence. They all are within a few fun, easy miles of each other. Meanwhile the ocean, with its beautiful beaches, is
always in view.

The area is full of wonderful restaurants to suit every palate and plenty of art galleries, antique shops, boutiques and
specialty shops, many along Nye Beach and the historic bay front in Newport. Many events take place throughout the
year at the Oregon Coast Aquarium, the Hatfield Marine Science Center, the Visual Arts Center and at the Performing
Arts Center. Schedules are available at the Newport Chamber of Commerce (newportchamber.org) and the City of
Newport web page (discovernewport.com) (links below).

The Discovery Tours are a great way to whale watch and learn about marine life. In addition, of course, there's fishing,
crabbing, kite flying on the beach, sailing, kayaking, storm watching and hiking, to mention only a few. Many other
points of interest exist along the coast: lighthouses, the Sea Lion Caves, the dunes at Florence, wineries and the Chinook
Winds casino in north Lincoln City; and inland: antique shops and Art District (Michael Gibbons and Ivan Kelly studios
and others, and the Yaquina River Museum of Art).
