King Crab Fishing In Kirkenes
A group of people is walking near a boat stationed at a pier in the bay of Jentoftbukta in Kirkenes, Norway, on January 13, 2024. The king crab (Paralithodes camtschaticus), known to be one of the largest crabs in the world, thrives in the cold, nutrient-rich waters of the Barents Sea region. Kirkenes, located at the northeastern tip of Norway, offers excellent fishing opportunities for this crustacean. Participants on king crab fishing trips are currently enjoying setting crab traps and experiencing the beauty of the Arctic landscape. (Photo by Jorge Mantilla/NurPhoto)
