Events & News
What's On at the Boathouse
Open weekends, workshops, seafood clinics from collection to consumption, community gatherings, and the occasional evening of live music at the end of a pier.
Taste the Coast
From the Tide…
To the Table!
When the tides and season align, visitors can join guided clamming and crabbing clinics, learning to harvest from the bay the way Garibaldi fishermen always have, then cooking and eating what they pull from the water. These sessions connect the culinary traditions of the Tillamook Coast to the living ecosystem right outside the door, in a way no restaurant meal can replicate.
Clamming and crabbing clinics are seasonal and scheduled.
