Captain Kidd Sport Crabbing Adventure
Available Year Round
Sport Crabbing Adventure aboard the Captain Kidd just might be the most exciting, exhilarating, and entertaining thing you do on vacation! After a short cruise from Shelter Cove Harbour (narrated by your captain so you don’t miss any sights along the way), the Captain Kidd anchors up in the shallow saltwater marshes of Hilton Head. The crabby crew will offer a brief demonstration on how to catch the little critters. Each passenger is supplied with their own crabbing equipment and whoever catches the most crabs by the time the bell rings wins the official (and much coveted) t-shirt!
