Spiny California

Rich, Succulent, Sweet, Buttery

Spiny Lobsters typically inhabit cold waters. Colder water inhabitants typically store an abundance of fats and oils for body temperature regulation. This attributes to a silky texture and rich flavor. "California" Spiny Lobster tails offer a beautiful addition to seasonal menus and nightly features.

about the fishery

Baja Peninsula Fleet

From small fishing villages along the northern part of the Baja Peninsula, Day Boat Fishermen set out in small Wooden Pangas for a day of hand lining and scallop diving. The honor of tradition and familial unity are drivers in this amazing Day Boat program.
