A Day in the Lives of Alaskan Fishermen

Sail with Bering Sea Fishermen in Search of Crab and Marine Life Delve into the everyday experiences of Alaskan anglers as you sail on board a genuine crab-fishing vessel. Your ship is the star of the Discovery Channel’s popular Deadliest Catch , now redesigned to accommodate guests who want to discover more about the men who brave the ocean daily. Meet the crew, hear their tales of survival at sea and see the lively camaraderie that develops among fishermen who live and work together. See and touch the fishing gear they use as they search for creatures that lurk within the ocean’s depths; octopus, prawn, halibut and crab frequently appear in their hauls. Guests will have the opportunity to handle some of these creatures before they are returned to the sea. From above, glimpse soaring eagles as they dive for their prey within yards of your vessel. Be sure to have your camera at the ready to capture these incredible moments. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines.
