Regional Tour Inspirations
Naturally Speaking
Paddle your way through the serene Scappoose Bay , a beautiful wetlands/watershed area rich in cultural history and home to a variety of migratory birds, bank beaver, heron and eagles. The bay is a naturalist’s hideaway where few boats travel to rediscover its secluded waterway. This peaceful and calm getaway is centrally located north of downtown Portland and south of Astoria . Let Scappoose Bay Kayaking take you there.
Brewtopia
Portland is the beer capital of the world, with 23 breweries in the city limits – 34 if you consider the entire metro area. That’s more than any other city on Earth. From large to mid-size breweries like Bridgeport Brewing Company and Widmer Brothers Brewing Co. to smaller, unique producers like Hair of the Dog and Oregon’s first organic brewery– Portland is sure to have a brew that will make your mouth hoppy.
Epicurean Exploration
From our local farms and markets to your plate, the Portland region is a mecca for fresh, sustainable fare. Go directly to the source to explore the bounty of our scenic countryside – from grapes to filberts, pears to salmon – or savor a sampling of delicious entrées served at one of the hundreds of local restaurants that call Portland home. Whether you’re learning about your food or simply eating it, let Portland embrace you under its epicurean wing.
Keeping Portland 'Portland'
Delve into the fun and funky institutions that keep Portland , well, Portland . Indulge your quirky urges at Voodoo Donuts by satisfying your sweet tooth and renewing your vows in the same evening. Take a trip back in time at the Velveteria, Museum of Velvet Paintings or explore one of the most extensive rock and mineral collections in the nation, if not the world. From an antique toy museum to a museum of vacuums, Portland truly is a one-in-a-million destination.
