Visitor Tips and News About Yaquina Bay Sea Monster Statue

Newport, Oregon - Yaquina Bay Sea Monster Nessie is the "World Famous Yaquina Bay Sea Monster." She is said to have been found by a night watchman in 1992. A sign tells what the creature really is: a Kronosaurus Queenslandicus or Crown Lizard. She is now on display in Aquarium Village, a little area of shops in Newport, just south of the bridge. I would say that Nessie is about 20 feet long, and she looks pretty fierce. [Jody Day, 07/14/2008]
