About

Astoria is the Pacific Northwest's most film-storied city—a Victorian port at the mouth of the Columbia River where fog rolls off the water, Victorian mansions crown the hillside, and a working waterfront provides genuine maritime atmosphere. Oregon Film promotes Astoria as a flagship filming destination, and the production legacy justifies the attention: The Goonies, Stand by Me, and Kindergarten Cop established Astoria as a cinematic shorthand for damp Pacific Northwest authenticity. The Oregon Film Trail includes multiple Astoria sites, and the city's film liaison provides streamlined support for both location scouts and active shoots. The combination of Victorian residential architecture, working commercial waterfront, river estuary, and dense Pacific Coast forest within a single municipality makes Astoria unusually flexible.
