Nye Beach in Newport



Out-of-town visitors often miss one of the most charming neighborhoods of Newport. Nye Beach is an historic area that has been revitalized in recent years. It is certainly one of the most romantic neighborhoods on the Oregon Coast. It is pedestrian friendly with ocean front parking and easy access to the sandy beach. You will find it just five blocks west of Highway 101 off NW Third Street. This is an easily accessible place for the handicapped.

This is one of my favorite shops. I love the Vera Bradley bags with their vibrant colors. The Vera Bradley soft luggage is nice also.
