Behind the scenes
The Goonies was filmed on location in Astoria in 1984; buildings and locations featured in the film still exist and are visited by fans from across the globe.
When were The Goonies filmed?
The Goonies, released 35 years ago in the summer of 1985, is bookended by scenes shot on location in Astoria and Cannon Beach, Oregon, and Bodega Bay, California, but the bulk of the film was shot on a series of soundstages at Warner Bros.
Where is Goonies filmed?
The film holds particular esteem among Oregonians, as it was mostly shot along the iconic North Oregon Coast, from a “Goon Docks” neighborhood of Astoria to Ecola State Park and beyond. So it's only fitting that we mark the 35th anniversary of “The Goonies” with a statewide celebration.
