King Crab Fishing In Kirkenes
A panoramic view is showcasing the surrounding landscape in the bay of Jentoftbukta in Kirkenes, Norway, on January 13, 2024. The king crab (Paralithodes camtschaticus), known as one of the largest crabs in the world, thrives here due to the cold, nutrient-rich waters of the Barents Sea region. Fishing for king crabs is an exciting activity in Kirkenes, where participants are joining fishing boats, setting crab traps, and enjoying the beauty of the Arctic landscape.
