Seafood at Half Moon Bay (this weekend is the start of the dungeness crab season)

Make a nice field trip to Half Moon Bay. Enjoy the beach and a seafood lunch at the ever-popular Sam's Chowder House and then, visit Pillar Point Harbor (1 Johnson Pier) to get fresh seafood off the boats. Mornings are best. You may get lucky and spot a friendly seal swimming amongst the fishing boats, pleading for fish. 

Find the fresh catch of the day advertised on white boards on the pier. This weekend (15th Nov) is dungeness crab season. 

Can't find anything you want on the boats? Head down to Princeton Seafood Co for a selection of seafood. 
Half Moon Bay Fish Market (99 San Mateo Road) has a better selection of seafood. We bought Prawns at $16 a pound, a dozen fresh oysters at $12 flat and freshly caught sea bass. It's not the cheapest but it's fresh!
Enjoy the sunset at Crystal Lake, near Half Moon Bay

Take a stroll at Half Moon Bay state beach. Parking is $10 but you can always find street parking and walk in.
