The captain will give you instructions on how to set the pots and how to properly measure and check the crabs, so even if you're a beginner you'll be able to participate and have fun.

Throughout the day, the captain will provide insight and guidance, sharing his knowledge of the local crab population and their habits. You'll learn about the different species of crabs you might encounter, as well as the best techniques for catching them.

As you crab, you'll be surrounded by stunning scenery, with the rugged Oregon coast on one side and the vast Pacific Ocean on the other. You might even see some wildlife, such as seals, sea lions, or seabirds.

At the end of the day, the captain will help you sort and clean your catch, so you can take it home to enjoy a fresh, delicious meal. A crabbing trip in Hammond, Oregon is a truly unforgettable experience that combines adventure, education, and the thrill of the catch
