Downtown The charmingly walkable Cannon Beach downtown entices rain or shine with a bloom of art galleries, boutiques and curio stores set in shingle-style coastal cottages. Start at the iconic striped facade of Bruce’s Candy Kitchen, where from the windows you can see saltwater taffy being made. Since 1963 this fourth-generation, family-owned business has delighted visitors with sweet treats including handmade chocolates, homemade fudge and caramel corn. Find more locally made goods at Cannon Beach Soap & Candle, where owner Erin Fenison makes sustainable handmade soaps along with bath bombs, lotions and scrubs — most are vegan-friendly. Discover one-of-a-kind pieces at the destination interior design store Sesame + Lilies, where two floors of modern and antique furnishings, artifacts, and seaside objects easily captivate. The vibrant animal portraits and landscape paintings adorning the walls are by owner and artist Diane Speakman. The Salty Raven showcases artist Seasons Kaz Sparks’ unique screenprinted graphic tees, hand-sewn accessories, glassware and high-quality gifts, each adorned with original FROM LEFT: GRANITE AND LIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY / OCVA; COURTESY OF SALTY RAVEN Bruce’s Candy Kitchen Salty Raven 38 Cannon Beach Visitor Guide
