Kids & husband loved it! The pictures show 2 1/2 lb of Snow Crab clusters, "bucket" of corn, tray of cornbread. For reference: son 13yo daughter 15yo + husband and it was a dinner with corn and a couple legs left over. Could easily feed family of 4. Enjoy!

Fresh and flavor. Cooked meals are great! Highly recommend. Not cheap but worth the money.

Spent a week at a beach house right next to whalebone. Stopped to look around and they had a great selection of seafood. Decided to make some shrimp tacos and got three pounds of 26-30 count shrimp. They deveined and cleaned them for me quickly. You could truly tell how fresh they were. They also had little neck clams that I’d get to make linguine/clam sauce. On Tuesday, they had a wine tasting. Overall, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Even got a shirt there. Highly recommended

Whalebone Seafood Market was incredibly clean, and the service was very quick and friendly. Was able to get a little over a pound of large shrimp for $20. This store also carries many sauces and has dessert options. Would recommend for any of your seafood needs.

This is some great fresh fish 🐠 and crab 🦀. They had Dungeness crab, snow crab legs, and whole blue crab that were a great size. Nice sized scallop too. At the time of our visit it was $130 for 1/2 a bushel which was a great market price at the time. They even had hush puppies that were frozen and you warm up in the oven. Great service.
