Go Crabbing

Catch. Steam. Eat. Repeat.

Embark on a crabbing adventure in Virginia's River Realm, where both beginners and experienced crabbers can enjoy this engaging local activity. Set up a crab pot or use a simple string and chicken neck right off the dock of your vacation rental for a laid-back day on the water. Alternatively, enhance your experience by joining a professional on a Waterman Heritage Tour, where you'll learn the ins and outs of crabbing in the area. This activity not only provides a fun way to spend the day but also the chance to indulge in the fresh, rich flavors of crabs caught by your own hands—a perfect taste of the local lifestyle.
