Rockaway Beach does not usually make the lists of best beach towns. Narrow it down to the north Oregon coast specifically, and it still faces stiff competition with Cannon Beach, Manzanita, Astoria, Seaside and Pacific City.

That could be even more reason to go.

On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we take a weekend trip to Rockaway Beach to discover all the overlooked destination has to offer. With corn dogs, ice cream, fried fish and kitschy shops, it definitely has a classic beach town vibe, while the beaches themselves can be expansive, quiet and beautiful.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

What’s the deal with Rockaway Beach anyway?
Why Pronto Pup is corn dog church.
Exploring the many beach access points.
Skip the rental for a hotel room with a kitchen, balcony and ocean-facing hot tub.
