Colorful Dungeness crab pots grace the deck of the F/V Chelsea, Newport Oregon, berthed at Fishermen’s Terminal, Ballard WA. Dungeness crab are a popular Northwest seafood feast. In the Pacific Northwest they are the most important crab harvested in the coastal and inland waters by commercial fishermen and sports fishermen alike in Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. If Dungeness crab are your favorite crustacean, you’ll want to visit the annual Dungeness Crab and Seafood Festival, held in Port Angeles early each October.
