Seaside is pretty famous.  It's also always very busy. But it sure is the quintessential beach town. Beautiful pavilions... a park in the center, pastel colors everywhere, a fun little town area, etc.  A few pictures below showcase only a tiny portion of Seaside. This is a great little spot for a morning session to be done in and around town. Very quaint. You cannot access Seaside's beaches unless you are staying there.
