Nye Beach District
Two miles north of the Oregon Coast Aquarium and other attractions, Nye Beach is a 12-block haven of coastal eateries, boutique shopping and easy beach access. More than 40 locally-owned businesses and shops line the streets, with some reduced hours in the winter, so check before you go. Stock up on handcrafted art, jewelry, antiques, toys and home decor at shops.
The Newport Visual Arts Center & Performing Arts Center, (in the Nye Beach turnaround) and Newport Performing Arts Center (at the bottom of Olive Street) are great spots to catch a film, theater, musical performance or even a live opera.
