Seaside is internationally recognized for its pioneering New Urbanist design, where charming homes, walkable streets, and thoughtfully planned public spaces create a close-knit coastal community unlike any other.

Designed to Leave the Car Behind

From the grocery store and post office, to boutiques, restaurants, parks, and sugar-white sand beaches, Seaside was intentionally designed so everything is just a short walk or bike ride away.

On the Big Screen

Seaside's picture-perfect streets were chosen as the setting for the 1998 film The Truman Show. Walk through town today and you'll recognize many of the same places that appeared on screen.

Airstream Row

One of Seaside's most recognizable attractions is its collection of vintage Airstream trailers serving everything from gourmet grilled cheese to sweet treats. It's a dining experience that's become just as unique as the town itself.

The Amphitheater

The Seaside Amphitheater serves as the heart of the community hosting concerts, outdoor movies, farmers markets, and seasonal celebrations throughout the year. It's where locals and visitors come together after a long day at the beach.

Coastal Urbanist Architecture

From the iconic Seaside Post Office, to the charming cottages and white picket fences, Seaside's architecture is instantly recognizable. Every detail was intentionally designed to create a welcoming town that feels both timeless and distinctly coastal.
