Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Lumber Dock

Located in the commercial fishing area of Garibaldi, the Lumber Dock is a great place for finding crabs. Generally the area is protected from boaters, but a dive flag is recommended. An interesting note: there is no law in Oregon that says a boat must stay away from a dive flag. This is a very dangerous situation. Stop by Doug's Diving (in the background of the second entrance photo below) and sign their petition for a minimum safe boating distance to divers. From Portland, take Highway 26 West to Highway 6 West into Tillamook on the coast. Drive North 9.9 miles into the Heart of Garibaldi, and turn left onto 7th Street as shown below.

I dive here sometimes out of boredom but there is really not much to see. It's a sandy, rocking bottom. I usually do well getting crab here as well as clams but the vis can get bad and it's pretty boring.
