Dungeness crab not available for Thanksgiving this year in Monterey
MONTEREY, Calif. (KION) Central Coast families celebrating Thanksgiving with Dungeness crab instead of turkey will need to make other plans this year.
Because of the number of whales in the Monterey Bay, the City of Monterey said the commercial Dungeness crab season has been delayed, so it will not be available on Thanksgiving this year.
The City of Monterey said the Monterey Bay Fisheries Trust is a helpful place to find seafood alternatives and recipe suggestions. You can check out the website here.
