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.
