King Crab Safari in the Arctic Ocean

The day begins early in the morning in Nuorgam, where you set off on an unforgettable journey to the coastal Sámi village of Pykeija on the Norwegian side. As you drive through the breathtaking fjords, the serene beauty of the Arctic landscape unfolds around you, with rugged cliffs, quiet coves, and crystal-clear waters. You check the crab traps, eagerly anticipating what they may hold. Among the catches could be the Arctic’s largest crustacean – the mighty king crab – which can weigh up to an impressive 15 kg.

While the pots are hauled in, delicious local food is served, allowing you to savor the flavors of the region as you enjoy the spectacular surroundings. After the excursion, the freshly caught king crab is expertly prepared by the restaurant’s kitchen, offering a feast that is as memorable as the adventure itself. For those seeking a touch of thrill, there is also the opportunity to take a refreshing dip in the icy waters of the Arctic Ocean, making this day an extraordinary blend of nature, adventure, and culinary delight.
