What to expect:
Duration: 3 hours
Hoonah
Hoonah, AK, USA
The first stop is the dock in the village of Hoonah. This is where we keep our commercial crabbing boat and our morning catch of crab.
Pick out your fresh crab as we answer any questions you might have about Alaska commercial fishing and crabbing.
We fish for pink salmon to use as bait for our commercial crabbing. All the gear is on board so we can give you a demonstration on how it works right at the dock.
15 minutes
Hoonah Beach House
155 Front St, Hoonah, AK 99829, USA
The next stop is the deck over the water at Hoonah Beach House. This is just a quick stop to put our crab on ice for later, and maybe use the restroom if necessary.
We will be returning to this location later for the crab feast!
15 minutes
Hoonah
Hoonah, Alaska
The next stop is some forested private property just outside the village. We occasionally see coastal brown bears here, so have your camera ready.
This is where Srisa and I pick the wild Alaska berries you will be enjoying in your dessert at the crab feast. We also have a small garden and orchard. We enjoy talking about what it takes to survive and thrive in our remote location.

Next, it's back to the village to see our friends at the carving shed.
This is your chance to watch local Tlingit master carvers craft totem poles from yellow cedar logs.
15 minutes
Hoonah Beach House
155 Front St, Hoonah, AK 99829, USA
The final stop is the deck at Hoonah Beach House for some fresh crab!
The crab we iced down earlier is now ready to be cooked and prepared.
Relax and watch as we show you the local way to cook crab. Most people have never tried crab fresh off the boat. Typically, crab shacks serve pre cooked, frozen and re-heated crab. Even the ones that advertise "fresh".
Not us! This is the real deal, and you won't believe the difference. Most people tell us it's the best crab they have ever had.
