For Sophisticated Menu With Ocean View, try Tidal Raves Seafood Grill in Depoe Bay.  Combine Romance and Fun at Pelican Pub & Brewery in Pacific City. For quality, relaxed dining walk down to Roseanna's Cafe in Oceanside.

We have the perfect gathering spot for meetings, reuniuons, weddings and simple events.  The room offers  280 DEGREE VIEW OF THE OCEAN.  

July 23rd is the Rockaway Street Dance.  At the Garibaldi Museum, see Will Dixon a local woodcarver and storyteller.

 

For a little shopping, Tillamook will hold its Moonlight Madness on the 29th

 

My favorite is Tillamook Northwest Classics Fly-In/Cruise-In - everything classic is at the Naval Air Museum on July 30th.

 

July 30-31 is Garibaldi Days with parade, vendors, and beer garden. You can also reserve a seat on the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad Dinner Train - a 3 hour excursion along Tillamook Bay and a four course meal.

 

Plan ahead so you can visit it all. 

Found a great Eco Guide Service  that provides flat-water tours on Tillamook County's local waterways. Most people are know are getting a bit frustrated with our cooler (and wetter) weather this summer.  Still, who wants to waste summer days?  Those raised in the Northwest can't always handle being out in the full sun anyway.  Solution - go kayacking.  Get a little exercise, view fabulous wetland fowl and slough life without baking.  A water proof hat and a windbreaker will do you fine.  I have added kayacktillamook.com to my recommended sites list.

On of the best weekends of the summer.  Pacific City celebrates it's 52nd annual Dory Days fewstival with prade, boats, vintage cars and artisan fair.  The Garibaldi Museum reenacts 18th century sailors and ropemaking (the other kind of hemp festival !).  Rockaway Beach has a Beach Fire Festival and Concert.  Hard to chose.
