Bering Sea Crab Fishermen's Tour Come aboard the Aleutian Ballad as seen on season 2 of the Discovery Channel series Deadliest Catch. Minimum age requirement is 5.
(554)

Watch the skilled Bering Sea fishermen haul crab pots and long line fishing gear. Listen to the fascinating stories of the fishermen and enjoy AK! Bring your cameras and get ready for a once in a lifetime adventure as you cruise in the calm protected waters of Southeast, Alaska aboard the working boat, F/V Aleutian Ballad. Fans of the Discovery Channel program, The Deadliest Catch, may be familiar

with this ship as it was rolled over in a rogue wave during season 2 of the program. It survived that night and has now been retrofitted to welcome guests in comfort and style. On this 3 hour adventure you will see the crew pull up a variety of fishing gear and pots. Rockfish, cod, starfish, octopus, prawns, halibut and of course, a variety of crab will be brought aboard for guests to see and touch. The eagle viewing portion of the tour is breathtaking as eagles fly and feed within yards of the boat. The fishermen will share their tales of life at sea – the danger, the adventure and the fun. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to sail aboard a real Alaskan crabbing vessel and to experience what few ever have. Since its inception in 2008, this tour has won “Tour of the Year” five years running. It is a top rated tour on all cruise lines and is one of the most lauded excursions on travel web sites. Customer service is a top priority with this company and guests will not be disappointed. Be prepared with your cameras to capture amazing photos of the beautiful Alaskan wilderness and some of the best wildlife viewing in the world. No other tour offers this experience and for those looking to immerse themselves in the spirit of The Last Frontier, this is the tour for you. This tour is appropriate for guests with limited mobility as well as wheelchair guests.

How The Tour Works:

Half an hour prior to your tour departure, our crew will greet you on the Main Cruise Ship Dock and guide you to the Aleutian Ballad — just a few minutes’ walk away at Berth 3 – Tender Float.

The ship features both an amphitheater-style sheltered lower deck and a panoramic open-air upper deck. Once everyone is aboard, we’ll cut loose and head out to pristine Alaskan fishing waters.

On our way to the fishing grounds, you will get to know the boat and her colorful history as a working crab fishing boat in the notorious Bering Sea. You will get an exclusive look into the world of crab fishing and meet the crew — some you may recognize from Deadliest Catch.

You may get very close to islands and land where you can see Alaskan wildlife such as bears, deer, bald eagles. Seals are also possible on this ride! While we can never promise wildlife will be in sight, we keep a close eye with binoculars and always make every best effort to let you know if wildlife is in view.

We will arrive at the Protected Waters of Annette Island. There we will begin the next steps in your journey.
