An offset measuring method is for measuring an offset based on an optical beam reflected by an information medium, in a recording and reproduction apparatus including an optical pickup placed on transportation means so as to be driven along a radial direction of the information medium. The method includes the steps of directing an optical beam toward a first measuring position, thereby measuring a first offset amount based on the optical beam reflected at the first measuring position; moving the transportation means by a first distance in a first direction along the radial direction; driving the optical pickup by a second distance, which is equal to the first distance, in a second direction; and directing an optical beam toward a second measuring position, thereby measuring a second offset amount based on the optical beam reflected at the second measuring position.
