Big week on the scallop front as we head into the unofficial start of summer. We’re kicking things off today packing beautiful sea scallops from the F/V Relentless.

It’s been a strong scallop season so far, alongside steady production of golden tilefish - we will see a trip in before the weekend. We had an awesome run of bluefin tuna over the past month plus. Our gillnetters have also been getting back to work over the past few weeks, bringing in spiny dogfish, smooth dogfish, and winter skate wings.

The shops at Viking Village will be open this weekend. opens for the weekend on Thursday, May 21, and will be hosting an Art & Craft Show on Sunday, May 24.

It is with deep sadness that Viking Village announces the passing of Ernie Panacek on Friday, January 23rd, following a courageous battle with ALS. Ernie was a pillar of Viking Village for more than three decades, a respected leader in the commercial fishing and seafood industry, and a true legend whose vision and dedication shaped this dock and industry for generations. His hard work and commitment to fishermen has benefited thousands of lives and families. He will be deeply missed by all of us, especially by his family who he loved the most.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, January 31st at 2:00 PM at the Chapel at the Harvey Cedars Bible Conference. We invite all who knew and respected Ernie to join us in honoring his life and legacy.
