tillamook, or

The small city, named after the Native American tribe, is located on the southern end of Tillamook Bay. With relatively little land area, Tillamook consists of five rivers, which means here you will find plenty to do on the water. From fishing and kayaking on the bay, to driving the Three Capes Scenic Loop which ultimately presents you with a view of Three Arches Rock as well as Haystack Rock, you can de-stress and enjoy yourself in a city unofficially nicknamed: Nature’s Playground of the Oregon Coast. Within the city limits there are a number of quaint little shops, restaurants and also cheese makers—one of the city’s highlight is the Tillamook Cheese Factory. Most though come here for the outdoor action. Breathtaking views, plenty of hiking trails and any and everything a water lover could want.

When to Visit Tillamook

  • Winter

    The Pacific Coast keeps temperatures very steady throughout the year. The highs in winter (low-50s) aren't that far off from the summer (upper-60s). Winter is the rainy season, and it is very rainy. Tillamook gets about 40 inches of rain from November through January.
  • Spring

    Spring slowly dries, and equally slowly warms. May high temps are in the low-60s.
  • Summer

    Summer is definitely the peak tourism season. High temps get to the upper-60s, and it is much dryer than other seasons. Great weather for exploring the beach.
  • Fall

    The rainy season begins to move in during the fall, but September and even October can still be good months to visit.

What an amazing tour. We saw whales, dolphins and porpoises. The crew was very friendly and enthusiastic. We could really tell they are very respectful towards the animals, we were able to see two humpbacks for nearly half an hour, everybody was silent, the engine was off and the crew was also in awe. Only when the whales left, the engine was back on and we also started moving again. We really felt like we had all the time in the world and we didn't disturb the animals.

We had an amazing time flying over the beautiful canyons, admiring the waterfalls from above. While we are both quite adventurous, I have an occasional fear of heights. The staff was incredibly friendly and professional, putting our minds perfectly at ease and making the best experience for us possible.

This was one of the BEST experiences I have ever had! We extended our trip into a two-tank dive and got to explore the surrounding areas of the garden eel bay before going into our manta show.

This was one of our favorite experiences on the trip. Kensington Market is an incredible neighborhood with a vibrant culture. We had a LOT of food on this tour. If you're thinking this will be sample size HAHA you're wrong.

A wedding guest bought this voucher for me and my husband from our wedding registry via The Knot. We had Chiqui and Jonathan as our guides and they were great! Very personable and knowledgeable. They provided a cooler with water, soda and beer.

The catamaran was smooth and clean. The food was wonderful. The captain and staff were friendly and engaging. We could have have asked for a more fun and educational experience around the island. The snorkeling was wonderful with tons of fish, corral and eels.

My husband and I went on the catamaran cruise during our honeymoon in Milos... exceptional experience! I can not recommend it enough! Beautiful views, crystal clear water, delicious food and awesome crew! A trip to Milos would not be complete without this cruise! 10/10!

Francesca, our guide, was super personable and knowledgeable about the city and legends of Venice. The tour started near the train station and followed through all the alleys and streets to San Marco Square. The weather and the sunset were absolutely beautiful as well.
