But i'm curious just how rare it really is. I've walked the beaches in newport but really haven't found much of anything. So now I want to see if I can't find some myself.

Most of our Newport Blue finds have been on the North side of the river at Ona Beach {a few miles South of Newport}, lots of beach and rock to sift there. Parking is limited there, go early.

amygdule do you happen to know rooster from rooster rocks and know if he’s still around? That's a nice blue that you posted. Did you find it yourself ? Rooster is still around. I went and visited him at his shop this morning. Do you know him and where his shop is in Aquarium Village ? Between Seal Rock and Newport is where I hunt for blue agates. To tag me or send a PM, my username is amygdule64 This is one of my favorite blue agates

To tag me or send a PM, my username is amygdule64 This is one of my favorite blue agates The blue I posted came from a couple 5 gallon buckets of blue that rooster gave to my grandpa. I got a chance to contact him and found out him and my grandpa were pretty close friends. Don’t know if you’ve ever seen them, but he told me the frame of arrowheads hanging on the wall of the shop are a gift from my grandpa that he made for rooster. Thank you for the reply.
