Follow along with National Geographic on our unforgettable Alaskan excursion!

“We booked this as part of our Alaskan cruise and it was by far our favorite off-ship excursion. Everyone involved with this operation is so informative and interesting. The “touch-tank” was great fun and will appeal to the wildlife lovers in your crowd. And of course the oysters were terrific! We had the option to sit a while and purchase more for snacking after our initial free tasting and they were delish.
Besides the ins and outs of running an oyster farm, we learned more about Alaska and the day-to-day living experience on this tour than anywhere else we visited. These kids are doing great work. We’ll be back!”

  • Literally amazing!!! Most unique Ketchikan experience. The people are so friendly and informative. You get to see much during the boat ride and learn so much about oysters. The kelp is delicious and don’t get me started about the oysters - the best oysters I’ve ever had. We had some people on our tour that didn’t like oysters and they still had a blast trying the kelp. Don’t waste your time looking around and just go ahead and book this - highlight of our trip!

  • “The oysters were slightly salty and delicious. If you are from the east coast they are like a Copps island blue but not nearly as gritty. The kelp salsa was a real surprise and the family was welcoming and friendly. Great to see the Alaskan spirit of innovation alive and well. You can see the love that the entire family brings to the enterprise and it is amazing to see young kids driven to making this business work. Even if you are not an Oyster fan, this is definitely worth the visit.”

  • “I live in Ketchikan and have never been the type to do tourist stuff but I'm glad I did!!! Went out with a bunch of ladies and tried oysters from the grill they were fab!! The kids who run it are very knowledgeable on what goes on and how the business works. Awesome time I even left a saying for a hoodie or shirt as they were looking for ideas. Thank you again for the fun and now I know where to take my family when they visit! GO CHECK IT OUT PEOPLE!!!!!!”
