Are you ready to brave the Barents Sea and taste the freshest King Crab you can imagine? This 3-hour King Crab Safari offers a unique experience of getting up close to the fascinating King Crabs that inhabit the Northern Norwegian coast and show you how to catch, prepare and eat these giants.
You will be picked up at your centrally located hotel in Kirkenes. An experienced Fisherman will take you for a King Crab fishing tour on a brand-new RIB boat. The boat drives up to 40 knots speed. You will cruise along the fjords and the Barents Sea to find the right place to anchor. You will help pulling up the King Crab cages from the depths.
After returning to shore, your guide will serve your catch in a traditional renovated boat house by the fjord. Eat as many King Crabs as you wish, fresh from the Arctic sea. The superb, white meat of the legs and claws is particularly juicy and has a natural sweet taste.
