They updated a few things, moved the office towards the front, and it just seems to be running really well (do I dare say better?). Everything else is great! We rented a boat and went crabbing. Only got 3 crabs this time, but it was still fun. It's just the idea of being out there that makes it so fun! We went on a rainy day so could not enjoy the view from our site since we had to stay inside the trailer. It's okay, it was still a great visit. I look forward to going again! Ha! I have to laugh, you know when you are tying reviews, you can see others to the right. I see that one of my friends wrote a review and pretty much wrote the same as I did in the 1st paragraph. That's funny. July 2025

We came here with friends for lunch, and we couldn't have asked for a better afternoon! Between the…read moregorgeous weather, the great seafood, and the amazing view, it was a total highlight of our trip. One of the best parts of the experience is that you get to pick out the exact crab you'd like; they are then cooked and cleaned for you right on the spot! They also offer clams to steam and oysters that you can shuck yourself if you're looking for a variety. After selecting your crab, you head inside the shop to pick out chips, canned sodas, or something from their variety of beers and sauces to pair with your meal; just don't forget to grab your butter, garlic, and lemons before paying! They also offer oyster shooters in a souvenir shot glass, though be warned that they are served frozen; you may find yourself finishing your meal with them instead of starting with them by the time they finally thaw. The crab was obviously super fresh; truly, nothing beats eating it fresh out of the pot! We also noticed they have a number of back-in RV sites overlooking the water; that is definitely something we'd consider for a future stay. If you're looking for an authentic, hands-on coastal experience, this is the place to be!

He was very communicative and flexible…read more He watched the weather reports to insure we would get out on the perfect day during our visit to the coast. He has a custom made boat with advanced technology. Andy also has decades of experience fishing in that area and we had almost constant action, achieving our limit with very little down time. Andy was also a pleasure to be around and made the experience a blast for my son. We kept our fish and crabs and they are truly delicious and we have lots of fish left over in our freezer. I am very happy with our experience and I would highly recommend Pacific Offshore Charters to anyone looking for a high quality fishing trip off the Oregon coast.

We met Mark and the other four fishermen joining us, at crack of dawn. Launched through the surf out to the ocean straight to the crab pots. Got our limit of crab and then on to fishing. We caught Ling Cod, Rock Fish and Cabezon. Mark and his wife Linda are all about the customers experience, we all meet back at Mark's house where we learn how to ready the crabs for steaming, while the crabs steam Mark and Markus fillet the fish and Linda vacuum sealed the fillets. After that we feasted on warm steamed crab and had even more to take home! Highly recommend Pacific City Fishing for a great experience.

This is your classic circa 1970's sporting shop. Huge inside but still cluttered. They have a lot…read moreof inventory although finding what you are looking for could be a challenge. Like most sporting stores, they were out of a lot of commonly needed commodities like ammunition. We walked out empty handed. The staff is friendly enough and there were a goodly amount of employees so that if you needed help it wasn't difficult to flag someone down. Our interest is guns but they also carry a lot of fishing/crabbing related equipment so if that's your thing they likely have what you're looking for. There are very few sporting stores out this way so this place is probably about the best you are going to find within a few hours driving distance radius.

The stuff was really helpful This will definitely be my favorite spot from now on!!!!!read more

We called and were able to easily make a reservation in advance, with tips on when would be best to start our little adventure but also mentioning the flexibility of when we could show up. This was our very first time crabbing but they made it so easy for us to be successful. Jim was helpful and friendly, and Brody (I think that's his name?) explained everything about the boat and how to crab clearly enough for us beginners to understand. And the prices can't be beat either, more than fair for everything you're provided with! We loved how friendly everyone we came in contact with was and the total ease of the whole excursion. Definitely a top recommendation!

The guide immediately asked his clients to reel up. Our fish got tangled up in one of the lines and he immediately cut that line so that we were able to get the fish in. We have finished at buoy 10 for many years and run into similar situations several time and the guide was unwilling to pull their lines from the water to help out a fellow fisherman, resulting in a lost fish. I feel that this is the one of the classiest things I have seen on the water. We have friends coming from Toronto next year and I will try to get them on his boat. He impressed me as a quality guide
