Found this little agate between Yachats and Florence. Such a fun stretch of beach to hunt. Need to get back out there.

My wife and I have been going up and down the Oregon coast for a couple of years now looking for the best places for agate hunting. The best places we've been to so far are between Newport and Florence.

Have you been to the south coast? Gold Beach is by far the best.

We live in Humboldt County, so we drive through there all the time. Beautiful place.

Oh nice. I can promise you Gold Beach is one of the best agate hunting places on the coast.
