Itinerary

Experience an exciting hands-on crabbing adventure right from the pier—no fishing license needed! During this 3.5-hour guided trip, you’ll learn how to catch Dungeness and Rock Crabs using a fishing rod and top-rated Durasnare crab snares. All equipment is provided, and no experience is necessary. Note: Dungeness Crabs are not allowed to be retained within the San Francisco Bay as it is within a protected estuary. However, we will occasionally catch them as a bycatch and must be released if caught. After the catch, we’ll cook your crab right on-site so you can enjoy the freshest seafood possible. It's the perfect mix of fun, learning, and experience—ideal for families, beginners, and experienced anglers alike.
