Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Crab Dock
A great site for, what else, CRABS! The Docks have easy access and entry, but you do have watch out for the current. Plan your dive for slack! Exploring under the dock, lost items, from the landlubbers above, are there for the taking!
Take the nearest exit from the South side of the Newport Bridge. Head down the hill toward the water, and find the parking lot close to the bay just to the East of the bridge. You won't see the dock until you start to walk toward the water.

This was a dive we did and won't do again. There is a long walk to get in the water. Then a climb down the rocks followed by a long surface swim. There was very little life at crab dock. The only crab we saw were about 5, 3-4in. Red Rocks just before high slack. Current was pretty strong so we didn't go out to the end of the dock. We just drift dived back to shore. We did find a crab pot, 3 bait boxes, and a chocolate bar so, if you wanted to get some treasures, people drop things off the dock! One jerk dropped a pot right next to us so be careful while diving.
