We had a blast with Ty on the Bay clamming walking tour! Ty showed us how to identify Gaper and…read moreButter blow holes. We raked for Cockles. We left the class with our clam catch limits. We subsequently went out by ourselves the next few days and again limited out on Butters, Cockles, and Gapers. Great class! We're ready for another adventure with Garibaldi Charters!

All new experience coming from So-Cal. Took out the D&D for a shallow water morning Rock Cod trip…read more Captain and crew did a great job on putting us on the fish and keeping our lines rigged.

This is the best port in Tillamook bay for crabbing and accessing the ocean…read more It offers 4 boat launch lanes, ample free parking for cars, $10 boat launch/trailer parking fee, free life preservers to borrow, and convenient nearby bait shops, restaurants, and restrooms. Also there's now a nearby food cart pod just off highway 101, so you'll have lunch/dinner covered if you don't have much luck fishing/crabbing.

Interesting reviews for this little town. Three stars because most places are closed on…read moreSunday?!?!? Maybe the hard working folks in this town need a day off? Or they are at church giving thanks? The pile of lumber the karen complained about is apparently long gone. I've been coming here a few times a year for the past 35 years or so and I can't say that I've ever seen her opinion of an eyesore. And creosote is not especially harmful unless you consume it in large quantities. So let's talk about the good in Garibaldi and there is plenty of that here. Not a lot of places to eat but there are a few. With the scamdemic dining options are more limited but I'm sure the shop owners are suffering a lot more than their hungry wannabe patrons. The OCSR runs daily excursion trains daily during summer hours up to Rockaway. They also do very limited availability runs up to Salmonberry if you are lucky enough to get on one of those. The track bed gets increasingly rough as the years go by and that line did go all the way to Banks (and perhaps to Hillsboro if I recall correctly) not that long ago. The marina is great. I don't happen to have a boat but I love going there and talking to the skippers of old wooden vessels and taking photographs. These sailors come from all over and are mostly very friendly and happy to chat with dumb tourists like myself. The only negative, and it's really not a serious negative due to safety reasons but there is often a cop with radar at either end of town. I don't know what the limit is for actually getting a ticket but a small amount of inattention could potentially spoil your whole day. Of course if you run someone over because you are speeding that would spoil their whole day so..... Garibaldi is one of my favorite little towns along 101 and I've run the length of it from the Olympic peninsula to California.

Andy provided me and my dad and my son a great experience. He was very communicative and flexible…read more He watched the weather reports to insure we would get out on the perfect day during our visit to the coast. He has a custom made boat with advanced technology. Andy also has decades of experience fishing in that area and we had almost constant action, achieving our limit with very little down time. Andy was also a pleasure to be around and made the experience a blast for my son. We kept our fish and crabs and they are truly delicious and we have lots of fish left over in our freezer. I am very happy with our experience and I would highly recommend Pacific Offshore Charters to anyone looking for a high quality fishing trip off the Oregon coast.

Jason worked really hard to make sure we had a good time. I was with two of my sons and one grandson. We all had a great time and enjoyed the conversation and catching a lot of salmon.

Absolutely awesome! Jason took us last minute on his well deserved Sunday day off, fishing was slow…read moreall over and he was relentless at putting us on the fish! His professionalism, networking skills and ingenuity put us right in the middle of the action when nobody else was even getting bites. We must have had 25 fish landed all within an hr and his care and love of the fishery was next to none. He handled the many native fish that were caught with care and dignity making sure they were released quickly and carefully unharmed. At one point we had so many takedowns at one time he had 4 different fish in one net it was fantastic! Even with my 11 y/o son super sea sick he couldn't stop talking about how much fun he had. I've been on a lot of guided trips in the past and the 1st time with Lewis and Clark Guide Service. I would highly recommend Jason
