Highlights

What makes this experience truly unique is the opportunity to learn **West Coast crab snaring beneath the iconic Golden Gate Bridge** with experienced local guides from Durasnare. Unlike traditional crabbing with pots or traps, you’ll learn how to cast a crab snare using a fishing rod and reel and experience the excitement of catching crab from shore. We’ll teach you everything from gear setup, baiting, and casting techniques to identifying species, measuring your catch, safe handling, and responsible crabbing practices. No prior fishing or crabbing experience is necessary, and **all crabbing equipment is provided**. Whether you’re visiting San Francisco or a local looking for a new adventure, you’ll leave with hands-on experience and the knowledge to crab on your own. Don’t just visit the Golden Gate Bridge—**come catch crab beneath it!**

About San Francisco

San Francisco crowds steep hills onto a peninsula between the Pacific and its bay, with cable cars, the Golden Gate Bridge and colourful neighbourhoods.

The Golden Gate Bridge spans the strait at the mouth of the bay, often wrapped in fog, and walking or cycling across it is a classic. Boats cross to Alcatraz, the former island prison, while Fisherman's Wharf is known for seafood and the sea lions that bask on the docks of Pier 39. The Ferry Building is a food lover's market.

Top-ranked sights in San Francisco: Golden Gate Bridge, Union Square, San Francisco Chinatown.
