Deep Sea Charter or River Guide services; boat and equipment rentals; sea food sales and a public Boat Ramp are all just down the street in Garibaldi's Marina

 


 

Five rivers flow into the Tillamook Bay. At least two of these rivers, The Wilson and Kilchis, are considered world class Salmon fishing rivers. You can fish them on your own or hook up with one of many guide services in Tillamook County. On a trip recent visit to The Bayhouse at Garibaldi, a group called Team Salmon from Chris Heller, The All Around Angler did well during the Fall Chinook/King Salmon Run. You can read about their trip and the fishing at http://www.allaroundangler.com/fishreports.php

Find a special hidden treasure. Shop Antiques and Thrift Stores to local food specialties. Start in Garibaldi then onto nearby Tillamook, Bay City and Rockaway. It may not seem like it sometimes, but this part of the Oregon Coast is, at times, a little less traveled. That treasure might be easier to find at a bargain price.
