Morten & Gemma’s Portland guidebook
City/town information
This little beach town is more chilled than some of the bigger and busier options on the coast. But it has some really cute little restaurants and bars, and a stunning and seemingly endless beach with amazing views. Definitely worth a visit, any time of year.
