We started out that Saturday morning with only the intention of going to the Oregon Coast Aquarium https://aquarium.org/ which was about an hour and 40 minutes away. When we got there it was fairly crowded but we still got through each exhibit fairly easily. By far the best feature was the shark tank which had live Leopard Sharks and Hammerhead Sharks, and even some stingrays mixed in. The tank surrounded us like we were in a tunnel surrounded by water. There was also a live tank to feel certain sea creatures like starfish and sea urchins. After finishing up at the Aquarium we headed into Newport to grab a bite to eat and decided on Mo’s Seafood. Mo’s had the appeal of an all-american burger joint but with seafood options, we got seated fairly quickly for how busy they were and they had a great kids menu for Orion.
