Seafood & Wine Festival Parking 2/19 – 2/22
It’s time for Seafood & Wine Festival in Newport again! As the Aquarium is located next to the festival grounds, SFWF guests are able to park in the Aquarium lot for a $10 cash fee. 
 
Aquarium guests will be able to park for free as normal during this time. Simply state you are here for the Aquarium upon arriving and gate operators should let you in. In the event an Aquarium guest is wrongly charged at the gate, they will be given a refund for the parking fee at the Admission annex.

EV Charging Station

The Oregon Coast Aquarium boasts three Level 2 EV charging stations in our Wolf Eel lot. These stations feature J1772 plugs and can charge up to six vehicles at once. See the above parking lot map for location details.

Special thanks to the City of Newport and the Economic Development Alliance of Lincoln County who helped make this possible.
