Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Yaquina John Point
Located in Waldport, this site has the best crabbing in the area! It's a little tricky to work with the tides, but ensure you are only diving during low slack. The channel is narrow and deep, and the current can be swift.
Found on the coast between Newport and Florence, the site is found on the South side of the inlet channel to Alsea Bay. See below for more directions.

Sure it is a crabby place. Went there on August 2, 2003. My 8-cells flashlight was giving me just barely enough light at 30'-35' to get crabs. Actually it was more like a night dive. Go on low tide slack. Just jump into the water from one of the rocks and go down. Interesting, that I've got the biggest males at 15'-they were hiding in the sand!
