A very worthwhile museum.

The Columbia River Maritime Museum is worth visiting if you're interested in maritime history and seafaring. The museum boasts impressive exhibits, from historic vessels and naval artifacts to fine art pieces. The museum has a $16 admission fee, or you can visit the Lightship Columbia only for $5.

The Astoria Column is a tower in the northwestern United States that overlooks the mouth of the Columbia River on Coxcomb Hill in Astoria, Oregon. The concrete and steel structure, built in 1926, is part of a 30-hectare city park.

The Astoria Riverwalk trail, which runs along the city's waterfront and a section of the Astoria & Columbia River Railroad, is a scenic 12.8-mile path that offers an excellent opportunity to soak in the beauty of Youngs Bay and the Astoria-Megler Bridge. The trail also features several shops, restaurants, and historical landmarks, such as the Maritime Memorial and the Columbia River Maritime Museum.

Housed in a 100-year-old home, Astoria B&B is ideally located just 3 short blocks from historic downtown Astoria. And just 4 blocks from the Columbia River, the River Walk and the Astoria Riverfront Trolley. Also within walking distance to the Columbia River Maritime Museum, the Liberty Theater and the Flavel House Museum. Located in a national historic district, this 1912 Craftsman-style home filled with country-style antiques is on the local historic register.

The Astoria Bridge is the last bridge before the mouth of the Columbia River into the Pacific, about 20 km away. She was the missing link to the U.S. To make Route 101 continuously passable along the West Coast of the USA between Olympia in the north and Los Angeles in the south. The southern end of the bridge is in Astoria (Oregon), the other end is at Point Ellice, a mountain promontory near the settlement of Megler, where the jetty for the ferry to Astoria used to be. The river is around 6 km wide at this point, but mostly flat. The 12.19 m (40 ft) deep and narrow channel for ocean-going ships traveling to Portland runs directly in front of the town of Astoria; beyond it lie the Desdemona Sands, a sandbank that extends beyond the middle of the river and partially runs dry at low tide. Off the northern bank there are variable channels with slightly deeper water that can be navigated by smaller ships.

The Astoria Column is a fantastic monument built in 1926 under the supervision of Ralph Budd, the president of the Great Northern Railroad. It depicts the Euro-American history of the Columbia River mouth and offers a panoramic view from the viewing platform, reached by climbing the 164 steps in a narrow, spiral staircase. The monument is modeled after Trajan's Column in Rome and is a must-see for anyone visiting Astoria.

The Cathedral Tree is a 300-year-old giant Sitka spruce nestled in the forested hillside. It's 8.5 feet in diameter, over 200 feet high, and has impressive buttress-like roots that can provide shelter if you get caught in the rain. Despite a windstorm in December 2007 that toppled many of the surrounding trees, the Cathedral Tree remained standing. It's definitely worth taking a side trip to see this majestic beauty.
