Sightseeing

The Astoria Column is a must see. It is a beautiful stone engraved shrine to the Pacific Northwest, Lewis and Clark, the Railroad and the history of Astoria. If you climb all the way to the top, you can fly your already purchased balsam wood airplanes that you can buy in the nearby gift shop for a $1.00 and watch them soar. The view is picturesque and spectacular, over looking Youngs Bay River, The Mouth of the Columbia River.

Inside the restaurant you can view " live" sea lions that rest beneath a section of a glass floor of the restaurant. The food and beer are great also.

This is such a wonderful quaint place to go and sip your coffee and eat a light breakfast of a delicious gourmet baked treat or lunch. Right on the pier ( Pier 39) where you sit outside and watch the ships go by and also hear and see sea lions.
