Guests can make a full weekend of it. In partnership with Winter Waters, Meridian Boutique Travel is hosting a small-group Adventure Coast weekend through Coos Bay, Bandon, and Reedsport, February 20–22, 2026, with accommodations and event tickets included.

From albacore crispy rice and Oregon pink shrimp ceviche to fishermen’s stew, seared black cod with seaweed risotto, and a dulse-infused brownie, each course connects plate to ocean.

Between courses, Winter Waters will guide guests through the seafood they’re enjoying, sharing stories about the fisheries, species, and ecosystems behind each dish.

For this Winter Waters collaboration, the culinary team has created a seven-course dinner highlighting seafood sourced directly from commercial fishermen working out of nearby Winchester Bay, a true taste of the richness and diversity of Oregon’s coastal waters.

An unforgettable evening of coastal flavor with @winterwaterspnw is coming to Kismet’s Landing in @reedsportwinchesterbay 🌊
