West Mooring Basin
Sitting at mile 14 of the Columbia River, just west of the iconic Astoria-Megler Bridge, West Mooring Basin offers recreational moorage with a front-row seat to one of the Pacific Northwest's most storied waterways. The setting is pure working-river Astoria — you're close to the historic downtown, with its cannery museums, seafood spots, and the famous Astoria Column up on the hill. The marina office is staffed seven days a week, so you can reach someone in person if you need to sort out your stay.
