The Nehalem Bay town of Wheeler celebrates fresh Dungeness crab at the Wheeler Crab Festival on the north Oregon coast. Feast on just-caught crab, enjoy live music and local vendors, and soak up the friendly, small-town atmosphere by the bay.
It's a delicious, community-minded celebration of coastal bounty. Wheeler and the neighboring towns of Manzanita and Nehalem offer some of the most laid-back, scenic coastline in Oregon — pair the festival with a paddle on Nehalem Bay and a quiet beach walk for a perfect coastal day.
