What to expect

This is a hunt! If you want the cheapest, most practical way to acquire crabs, then a seafood store may be the best option. But if you want to try the unbeatable taste of live crabs and a life-time experience, this is a trip for you.

ATTENTION:
Again, this is a hunt, therefore we cannot 100% guarantee crabs can be caught in every tour
The best crab raking conditions are on sunny days at low tides with minimal wind, keep in mind while booking your tours that we can not control mother nature
Sometimes, depending on the site landscape, there’s a long walk from the car park to the crabbing spot. It requires crab rakers to have good fitness and don’t mind their legs getting muddy.
A lot of the crabbing sites are remote therefore no public toilet available, strongly recommend a toilet break before reaching the raking site
Children can be accommodated (highly recommended above the age of 6), but guardians are ultimately responsible for your child while out raking.

Cancellation Policy:

Reservations cancelled 2 calendar days in advance of tour will receive a full refund less the booking fee of 5%.
No refund for reservations cancelled within 2 calendar days.
Any Tour cancelled by us due to inclement weather or other conditions beyond our control shall receive a 100% refund.
