King Crab Adventure

About this adventure

Join an unforgettable Arctic adventure and meet the king of the sea! On this trip you get to experience the mighty king crab up close, and enjoy a “king meal” in a real northern Norwegian fishing village. This is a unique opportunity to both hold the animals and take pictures, as well as learn about the king crab’s history and anatomy.

We explore the Altafjord and the historical areas in the inner part of the fjord before we end up in the fishing village Storkorsnes. Here you get to meet the king crab up close before we finally taste this exclusive delicacy.

The tour

Gather at our Æventyr Adventure Store nestled in the heart of the city, ensuring your presence 5-10 minutes ahead of the Tour's commencement. The journey kicks off with a concise orientation, and you'll be outfitted with cozy warm suits, gloves, boots, and goggles, all essential for your upcoming boat adventure.

Once properly attired, your adept guide will escort you to the harbor, where anticipation mounts. The harbor becomes the gateway to our aquatic voyage, as you step aboard our RIB boat and meet your capable driver. Following a brief yet crucial safety briefing, we set sail, embracing the invigorating freshness of the fjord breeze.

Our nautical expedition carries us to Storekorsnes, a picturesque fishing village nestled along the eastern shores of the Altafjord. A warm welcome awaits from the locals, eager to share their charming community through an insightful guided tour.

With memories cherished and experiences gained, we conclude our journey, returning to the embrace of our Adventure Store in the city center. This encapsulates a day of discovery, where the allure of the fjord and the hospitality of Storekorsnes' residents converge into an unforgettable adventure.
