The Surfing Crab is a family tradition of fresh seafood and crabs that was established over 50 years ago. It all started back in 1961, when Henry Vechery opened the Bethesda Crab House. His young son, Donald Vechery began working with him at the age of just nine. Over the years, the crab house became a huge success. Around 2008, Donald wanted to branch out and build something for himself using his years of knowledge and experience. Thus, The Surfing Crab was born, providing Sussex County with 13 years of the most amazing crabs and seafood the area has seen.

My husband I love this place. They have the best crabs that we've ever had. The seasoning is just indescribable very tasty. We've been going ever since it opened at least once a month when they're open. We have heard the rest of the food there is great too especially the crab cakes. We just love the crabs. The Personnel are so helpful and courteous. The managers and owners are top-notch. We have never had a bedtime or meal there. Best crabs in Delaware exclamation point

I've been eating crabs for 42 years and can truthfully say our experience Saturday was one of the best I've ever had. Not only were the crabs fabulous, meaty, fresh, hot, spiced perfectly, but the staff was one of the most friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, and caring I have ever met. Steff, Megan, and Ian, all deserve a big pat on the back. I can't wait to come back.
