Get the catch of the day, direct from the fishermen!

Did you know that you can buy crab and lobster right off the dock from the commercial fishermen in Galilee?

Grab your RI Seafood tote bag and head down to the docks! Using the RI Seafood finder, you can find various lobster and crab fishermen who sell right off their boats. Most recommend calling or texting in advance to check for availability.

Buying Rhode Island seafood helps increase sales and consumption of RI seafood in the Ocean State and achieves a more sustainable and secure local seafood system. By sourcing local, you are helping to reduce the percentage of imported seafood, as well as helping to boost the local economy. 

Find your fresh and support local seafood businesses using the local seafood finder. Interact with the map to find venues near you that supply Rhode Island seafood. 

Look and ask for RI Seafood caught by commercial fishermen, as well as seafood grown in Rhode Island waters by aquaculture farmers!
