Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Siuslaw River
Another excellent place for crab. The location is a little remote and out-of-the-way, which provides additional adventure! No more than 40 feet deep, you'll find crab and clams, and the occasional abandoned crab pot lost by boaters.
Located in Florence, on the North bank of the Siuslaw River, you'll need to get on Rhododendron Drive, which parallels the river bank heading to the ocean. For a scenic drive, head West on 9th Street and turn right on Rhodie, or go West on 35th street and turn right on Rhodie. Follow the directions below.

We dive this site all the time! It's our "default" dive site. We typically make a drift on the incoming tide and then a slack dive on the high tide. The site is also divable on small exchanges. There is a small finger jetty upstream from the entry that creates eddy currents. If you venture away from the jetty wall, make sure you know your compass headings! If you'd like to join us sometime, check out http://www.diverhead.com/ where weekend dive trips are organized on a regular basis.
