If the weekend only works when it's dry and mild (2026-08-09 – 2026-08-15), these towns fit.
Most “where to go” posts never mention the weather. This one does. For 2026-08-09 – 2026-08-15, we ranked places that actually fit golf weather so you can find your perfect weather instead of guessing.
You’ll see the same intent language we use when people ask for weather-perfect weekends: plan around the forecast, find places that fit, discover something unique, and get recommendations that feel current. The numbers under each city are why this isn’t fluff.
Below, start with Astoria (around 66°F) and keep scrolling. Use it like a briefing: skim the highs, read the short writeups, then plan your weekend around the matches that feel right.

Ranked picks for this weekend
1 — Astoria, Oregon
- 66°F weekend high
- Low 57°F · Oregon
- Little to no rain
If you’re scanning for current recommendations, put Astoria near the top of the list: weekend air around 66°F / 57°F, plus a dry outlook with little to no rain.
This is the kind of beach stop you discover when you stop browsing generic guides and start asking for weather-perfect weekends. You can actually plan a trip around outdoor time here without pretending the sky will cooperate out of kindness.
If you’re comparing two or three towns, weigh Astoria’s 66°F high against how you actually want to feel outside — then lock the plan once it feels like weather you’ll love.
