Tour Details

A private skiff and guide are at your disposal, as you can choose any combination of crabbing, fishing, and touring by boat during this excursion. Many southerners have heard of Alaskan King and Opilio crabs that are harvested from the depths of the icy Bering Sea, but fewer have had the opportunity to experience the shallower and succulent Dungeness crab. Alaska's Dungeness crabs are just as sweet as the blue crabs found along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts but are much larger and meatier. Locals have a deep-rooted connection to the Dungeness crab because they are readily accessible and delicious. A crab feast in Alaska is a treat to savor.

After you soak some crab pots, feel free to explore the wilderness, beach comb or fish for rockfish, red snapper, lingcod or Pacific halibut. If you decide to crab, your guide will take you to a secluded site in the rugged Alaskan wilderness, where you can enjoy your crab feast around a roaring campfire. Not only do you experience a fishing event enjoyed by locals, you will also learn how we clean, cook and eat our prized "dungies".

This is a perfect tour for a couple or a small group looking to escape the crowds and tailor their experience based on their own personal preferences.
