This family's experience:

Activities: We toured the cannery and learned about the history of fishing in Steveston

Highlights: My daughter loved punching in a time card and learning how to sort different types of salmon. She especially loved the large scale that showed how much she would be worth if she were a fisherman's catch of the day ✨
