Things to do in and around Garibaldi


Active Authentic Fishing Village


Garibaldi Marina and Harbor are home to a plethora of marine related activities – both recreationally and those who still make a living fishing and filleting on these waters.

Here you’ll find seafood processing companies, fishing charter services, marine rental gear, a boat wash, marine repair shop, fresh seafood outlets where you can buy the freshest seafood on the coast, and three restaurants all serving fresh seafood on their menus.

The bay is speckled with both commercial and recreational fisherman no matter the season. Many of them fillet their catches right on the harbor.

 


Garibaldi Charter Fishing Trips


A perfect adventure for the entire family! Take a day trip out on the bay to catch some tuna, halibut, or salmon depending on the season. Crab boat tours are also available.
