New Year's Eve Guide to Oregon Coast Published 12/27/2011 (Oregon Coast) – The last party of the year goes out with a bang – and quite a tasty mouthful as well. Many of the hotspots providing the booze and bash also have some of the best cuisine around (above: Warren House in Cannon Beach). Below is a sampling of interesting spots to hit on New Year's Eve for whooping it up – or for simply a calm, classy last meal of the year.
However, there are some celebrations that defy categorization, and so this sampling begins with the very unique – and impromptu - Manzanita New Year's Eve Parade. You never know if it will happen or not, but it usually does. Locals and regulars to the town gather suddenly and without warning or instruction at midnight on the main drag and make a lot of impromptu noises. In the past, there have even been wild costumes, such as a dragon wandering down Laneda. Manzanita, Oregon. New Year's Eve Parties Twisted Fish.
