Coastal Oregon boasts some of the most unique, inimitable shops and businesses you’ll find, and did we mention tax-free shopping throughout the entire state? Vacationing to the big cities might leave you with bags of mall-bought items that you can find in many other cities around the world, but shopping on a trip to the Oregon coast will leave you with something you won’t find anywhere else. Just consider the glassblowing studios throughout Lincoln City, where you can purchase one-of-a kind glass art, or even create it yourself while staying in one of our beach vacation rentals. Oregon coastal towns also offer numerous art galleries and gift shops where you can view and purchase unique treasures to remind you of your time here.
