The Bering Sea crab fishermen’s tour will have you set out into the calm protected waters of Ketchikan, Alaska on the Aleutian Ballad crab boat which was a part of season two of the Discovery Channel’s award-winning TV series Deadliest Catch.
The Aleutian Ballad is the only genuine Bering Sea crab fishing vessel licensed to carry leisure passengers. It has been completely remodeled to provide the comfort and safety you expect in a top-notch excursion. The Bering Sea Crab fishermen’s tour allows people from all walks of life to stand on the edge of the commercial fishing world.
It is a profession that has captured the interest and fascination of millions worldwide. The tour’s heated amphitheater allows you to enjoy an experience unlike any other. You will watch the crew work through many different types of commercial fishing gear as you are educated and inspired by their way of life.
Be prepared with your camera to capture the King and snow crab, octopus, prawns, and sharks, just to name a few, that are placed in the live tank on deck before being released back into the wild. Alaska is home to eagles, whales, seals, and sea lions. You may get very close to islands and land where you can see Alaskan wildlife such as bears, deer, and bald eagles. Seals are also possible on this ride!
These magnificent creatures form images and memories that will live with you forever. What the tour shares with you is the extraordinary experience of life aboard a beautiful working boat. What you take home with you – is the heart of its crew.
