Plan your visit!
We've dedicated an entire section of our Lobster 101 page to help you plan your trip to the dock and to make sure you get the best lobster experience. It's worth a quick read to help you plan what to bring!
Off the Boat Cliff Notes
- The dock is cash only. We also sell gift certificates if you'd like to give the gift of OTBL!
- Our cooked lobsters are packed to go only. You cannot eat at the dock, but your lobsters will stay warm for about an hour – and the beach is less than a mile away!
- We do not provide napkins, plates, or anything like that. If you're picking up your lobsters for a picnic, don't forget your supplies!
- All pricing inquiries should be done by phone. The dock is too busy for us to monitor social media when we’re open and we don't want to miss you!
- Read our full FAQ for more tips and tricks! We’ve included all of the most common questions from the dock, including questions about special orders, bulk orders, and how to travel with, keep, and cook live lobsters.

What’s at the dock?
Our open-air storefront operates right from our family-owned fishing pier on the York River, and we’re best known for selling lobsters directly from the fishermen who catch them! In addition to live and cooked lobsters, we offer live clams, live oysters, cooked lobster meat, stuffies (stuffed clams), corn (when it’s in season!), lemons, sea salted butter, and Off the Boat merch!
Cooked Lobsters
Here's where it gets really good! We’ll cook our tender, sweet lobsters right on site for you. Our lobsters are caught daily just outside the mouth of York Harbor, and we cook them right in the seawater from our location. Lobsters are cooked to go and will stay warm for about an hour in the packaging we provide. Perfect to bring home after a day at the beach or picked up on your way to the beach for a picnic!
