Excursion Overview

Catch and eat delicious crab for a truly Alaskan adventure

This exciting tour will bring you right to the heart of Southeast Alaska and the lush Tongass National Forest. Feel what it is like to be a local Alaskan! You can volunteer to pull up the crab pots from the beautiful waters surrounding Revillagigedo Island, which overflow with crab, salmon, seals, and whales. Breathe in the fresh air and incredible scenery as your crew shares the history and exciting stories of the ocean.

Of course, you get to enjoy your hard work with a delicious side of fresh salad. Cheesecake with blueberry topping will round out this locally-inspired meal. This is truly an exciting gathering that has been called a "Rowdy good time!" You will be led through a panorama of local tall tales then demonstrate the easiest way to crack your crabs!

The remote rustic, yet elegant old cannery lodge where you will have your meal just adds to your dining experience. The lodge's cozy charm truly creates an enjoyable, relaxing experience that will be the highlight of your Alaskan journey.

This tour was a blast! Our driver picked us up at the dock was very friendly and gave us lots of info on the area while transporting us to the excursion site. She even stopped along the way so that we could take pictures of a waterfall! The tour guide and captain of the boat were awesome! They were full of interesting stories and added a comedic flare to their storytelling while teaching us about crab fishing. They pointed out the wildlife that we saw and encouraged an eagle to dive down close to our boat to catch a treat. My husband got a fantastic photo!! Great guys, for sure! The crab feast was DELICIOUS!! Omg...YUM!!! The servers were fantastic and had the whole group involved in a tallest crab shell stack competition. So much fun! Thanks so much for this wonderful experience!!
