What To Expect

Hop onboard for a crabbing adventure! During this experience, you will be able to get hands-on experience on how to catch crabs fresh from the bay. Crabbing is a very unique trade that is special to Ocean City, as this is how many people make a living in this area. You and your friends or family will help the captain pull crab pots while he tells you all about the different parts of the crabs! The best part is that you get to keep the crabs that pass the legal size (you'll learn about this too!). The crabs will be divided evenly among the groups onboard. This two-hour-long trip is truly one of a kind and always sells out, so be sure to book your spot today!
