South River Crabbing Company – Family-Friendly Crabbing Adventures!

Looking for a fun way to get out on the water and experience the Chesapeake Bay? Join South River Crabbing Company for a relaxing and exciting 3-hour crabbing adventure on the beautiful South River!

These trips are perfect for families, kids, and groups of friends looking for something different from a traditional fishing trip. You’ll learn the basics of crabbing while working traditional trap lines, checking the pots, and pulling up your catch. There’s nothing quite like the excitement of seeing what’s waiting in the next trap!

Depending on the day and local conditions, you can take home up to a full bushel of crabs, giving you the perfect opportunity to enjoy a fresh Chesapeake Bay meal after your trip.

Our trips launch from a convenient and scenic location near Yellowfins Restaurant, putting you right on the beautiful waters of the South River. The relaxed pace makes this a great experience for first-timers and young anglers, while still providing plenty of excitement for seasoned crabbers.

Come prepared for a few hours on the water with sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, comfortable weather-appropriate clothing, and bottled water. Feel free to bring your favorite snacks and drinks to enjoy during the trip. A small cooler is also a good idea if you plan to transport your catch home.

Whether you're looking for a family adventure, a fun activity with friends, or simply want to experience traditional Chesapeake crabbing, South River Crabbing Company is ready to show you a great time on the water.

Grab your crew, head out on the South River, and make some memories while bringing home your own fresh catch!
