Fly a Kite The sustained winds on Lincoln City’s shore make for an ideal environment for kite flying. This classic activity is fun for all ages. Whether you’re a first-time flier or have been flying kites for years, Winddriven in Lincoln City covers all your needs. This Oceanlake shop has an impressive display of deltas, diamonds, and dual-line kites. Explore a Tide Pool & Go Beachcombing Tide pools are one of Lincoln City’s most valuable natural treasures. Sea stars, anemones, barnacles, and other intertidal residents dwell in these sensitive habitats. Please look but don’t touch and watch where you step — rocks can be slippery and animals don’t like to be stepped on! Plan your tide pool visit for just before or during low tide. Find tide pools just north of Roads End State Recreation Site, near the ocean’s edge at the NW 15th Street beach access, and in front of the Inn At Spanish Head. Beachcombing is a year-round adventure. Find agates, shells, fossils, petrified wood, and more hidden along the beach. Consider leaving your treasures in place to maintain natural spaces and habitats. The shop Rock Your World is filled with an array of natural treasures to bring home to your personal collection. Catch a Wave You’ll find world-class surfing here, from waist-high waves close to shore to over 40-foot swells on the Nelscott Reef, located nearly a mile out from the beach. Surfers from across the globe paddle out and play in these breaks, which are unpredictable, but best in the winter. Lincoln City has a wave of surf shops offering instruction, safety insights, and gear. Check out Lincoln City Surf Shop, Safari Town Surf Shop, and ZuhG Life Surf Shop for all your needs.
