Port of Garibaldi

The Port of Garibaldi is a charming and historic maritime hub located at the northern end of Tillamook Bay on Oregon's West Coast. Renowned for its deep roots in the fishing and seafood industries, the port has long served as a vital local anchor for commercial and recreational fishing, seafood processing, and maritime commerce. The city of Garibaldi, with a population of around 820, is known as 'Oregon's Authentic Fishing Village,' reflecting its proud heritage and continued significance as a working waterfront. Facilities at the port support a vibrant community of fishermen and charter operators targeting salmon, albacore tuna, and Dungeness crab, making it a key destination for seafood lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. The port’s significance is heightened by the presence of the U.S. Coast Guard Station Tillamook Bay, which plays a crucial role in maritime safety along this stretch of coastline. Beyond commerce, Garibaldi’s port is a cultural touchstone, with attractions such as the iconic 700-foot Pier’s End—the longest public pier in Oregon—drawing visitors for fishing, crabbing, and sightseeing. The port thus represents not only an economic engine but a living slice of Oregon’s coastal heritage—a place where maritime tradition and community life thrive year-round.
