Manzanita, Nehalem, and Wheeler are three villages in Oregon that function as one community. Located in the Nehalem Bay area of Oregon's Pacific coast, they share many essential services while maintaining different personalities as cities. The Nehalem Bay area includes Oswald West and Nehalem Bay State Parks, Neahkahnie Mountain, and a large bay where the Nehalem River enters the ocean. A few hardy souls made this area--the last part of the coast to be settled--in north Tillamook County their home starting in the 1870s. The new residents used industries such as dairy, logging, and tourism to harness the natural resources of their picturesque surroundings and develop their communities. Organizations such as the Pine Grove Community Club, the North County Recreation District, and the Hoffman Center for the Arts are just a few of the reasons these three villages attract thousands of tourists and visitors every year.

Doctor Thomas Moore, treasure hunter and the "Hermit of Nehalem" discovers a Spanish manuscript written by castaway Don Emanuel Zapata. Moore translates the manuscript which tells about Zapata's life and adventures, and the wreck of the Spanish galleon Guerrero off the Northwest Coast of America in the late 17th or early 18th century.
