Discover the Magic of Crescent CityThe Community Crescent City, CANestled just 20 miles south of Oregon, the sea-faring town of Crescent City boasts California's northernmost lighthouse station, the historic 1856 Battery Point Lighthouse, perched atop a tiny island accessible only by foot during low tide. Visitors traverse the causeway, ascend the narrow spiral staircase, and crawl through a trap door to enjoy a breathtaking 360-degree view from the lamp room. Nearby lies the St. George Reef Lighthouse, constructed in response to the 1865 shipwreck of the Brother Jonathan, laden with gold coins and bullion, much of which remains undiscovered. After exploring these maritime landmarks, wander the waterfront, witness the city's remarkable rebuilding following a devastating 1964 tsunami, and encounter playful sea lions at Ocean World aquarium. For a touch of nature, venture to Pebble Beach Drive, where agate hunting awaits along the oceanfront.Take a closer look at what can be experienced in Crescent City Airport Information: Portland International AirportLocated approximately 8 miles northeast of downtown Portland, Oregon, Portland International Airport (PDX) serves as a major transportation hub for the Pacific Northwest.
