Things to do in Portland with Children

Kelley Point Park

Portland's third creepiest park compensates with majestic views where the Columbia and Williamette converge, plus driftwood to play with and ships to gawk at. Perhaps it's a boy thing.

Pros

  • Short wooded trails.
  • A stretch of beach (not malibu exactly, but it’s a beach), all piled high with driftwood.
  • Great sweeping views where the Columbia and Williamette converge.
  • Nice industrial backdrop, if you like that kind of thing, with huge container ships passing by. I, for one, was awestruck.
  • Restrooms.
  • Parking a-plenty.
