The Oregon Coast Aquarium is a world class aquarium with a focus on the flora and fauna native to the Oregon Coast. Be sure to walk thru the acrylic tube in the "Passages of the Deep" exhibit. The playful sea otters are my favorite exhibit.

Activities
Blow your own glass - float, bowl or paperweight! I've done a float a couple of times now and had a blast both times!! The glass needs to cool overnight before you can take it home, so I recommend making reservations early in your stay. They do offer shipping though.
