We went halibut fishing and needed a place to ship our fish home to New Hampshire. They took care of packaging flash, freezing, and made sure the package got out as they said. We had issues with the shipping company and these people fought for us and we got our money back, wonderful staff and a great place to get your fish shipped from! Thank you

We were visiting from Florida. We came up on some fresh crab. We prepped the crab legs and Stopped in Coal Point to see about shipping back to Florida. You pay by the pound. They steamed, flash freezed and boxed for shipping. All we had to do was drop off and give them shipping info and pay. They have me a date to expect them and away we went. Great service and arrived as expected. Ready for a seafood night 🙂. On a second note we also took some that we were eating that night to be steamed and that was a quick and painless process. Priced right and worth stopping in.

Had our Sockeye salmon and halibut processed and flash frozen. Their packaging and customer service were better this year then previous years and our experience with other fish processors in Homer. My wife and were were extremely satisfied.

Fish was delivered a day late and some had thawed. Keep saying a manager will call me back but never happens.
Paid extra for skin to be removed but they didn't remove on every piece. Also said they would label types but didn't.

Had Coal point process and ship about 120 lbs of halibut and salmon. The representative was friendly and helpful, explaining all my options. The package arrived on time, was well processed, and the weight was spot on. Fish arrived still frozen solid. Will certainly use this company again.

This is the place all the locals recommended to purchase and ship seafood across the U.S. We stopped by their store and couldn't be happier with the service, seafood, quality, and delivering on exactly what they promised! First, fresh and tasty. These are gigantic crabs that you just don't get anywhere else in the U.S. One king crab leg weighs about 1 pound and measures as long as my arm. It may seem that their prices are a bit higher, but the price includes some recipes, taxes, shipping, and insurance. We sent $1500 worth to 2 different places. They ship overnight via Fed Ex on Mon-Tues-Wed. Sure enough, both recipients (on the east coast) received their seafood in less than 24 hours!
They have a great assortment of product, quick and deep frozen. They even went so far as to figure out if we could get more seafood by ordering gift packs or straight up. They were extremely patient, knew their product, and held true to their word. In fact, we visited them twice during our stay in Home!
They have a cute store with jams, tshirts, wool socks, outerwear, books, and local nostaglia. The kids will love the mounted fish haning on the walls - there are some creepy looking ones down in those dep waters! Many thanks for making our vacation so delicious and allowing us to share Alaska with those that didn't come with us!

homer IS the 'halibut capital of the world,' and
catching your daily limit of two of these delicious
fish is very common. depending on the type of
trip you chose, and the fishing methods used,
several varieties of salmon, including 'king,' are
also caught in the waters of kachemak bay, and
the cook inlet.
while getting these seafood delights from the
sea to the dock isn't all that difficult...getting your
catch home safely, could be another matter.
that's where coal point seafoods, conveniently
located right in the middle of the charter fleet, on
the homer spit, really delivers. thanks to their fine
service, when that great catch hits the deck, you
won't find yourself wondering... "now what?"
your boat's mates will clean your fish--all you
need do is take the fillets to coal point. they'll
weigh your fish, and ask how you want it por-
tioned. then, they'll vacuum pack it, flash freeze
it, and prepare it for shipping...and their fees are
very reasonable.
while they will arrange fed-ex shipping, i chose
to pick-up my processed fish on the last day of
my stay in alaska. it was packed into a cooler in
front of me, boxed, and banded for shipment. i
chose a larger cooler...and filled the additional
space with items from some of coal point's
supurb retail offerings... king salmon, various
smoked fish, local shrimp, and scallops. the
package weighed 43 pounds. since i fly fre-
quently, and don't pay baggage charges, that
box flew as part of my checked baggage...saving
the considerable fed-ex tariff.
counting the 225-mile drive back to anchor-
age, and three flights to get home to florida, the
return trip took a total of 26 hours WHEN WE
OPENED THAT COOLER...THE FISH WAS STILL
FROZEN SOLID... and looked just as it did
when the box was sealed in alaska. we've been
enjoying great halibut dinners for over a month
now, since my return, and because of the very
correct freezing process used by coal point,
the taste and texture is as if the fish just
came off the boat. a visit to coal point seafoods
will allow you to continue enjoying your alaska
trip, weeks and months after you've returned
home!!

We stopped here because we heard from a local that Coal Point had the best price on king crab and would cook it for us. There was a little bar / sitting area and we received great service. The crab was AMAZING and overall, it was a great experience! The $36/lb for the cooked and served king crab was a bit cheaper than what we saw elsewhere in Homer.

We had our halibut catch packaged and shipped at Coal Point. The customer service was excellent. We had our fished packaged, frozen, and shipped to us on the day of our choosing. It arrived perfectly frozen. There was bad weather in our area on the day it was to originally arrive and we were called and told they would send it the next day, just in case of weather-related delays. Now, how is that for service! The fish is vaccuumed packed and tastes just as good as the filets we cooked the same day they were caught.

We used Cole Point several years ago to ship our Halibut to PA. This time was no different. They told us they would be shipping it by FedEx on Tuesday for a Wednesday delivery. On Friday my mom got a call (it was shipping to her house) that there had been a hiccup with FedEx and the fish was safe in their freezer and would ship Thursday for a Friday delivery. It was very considerate of them to call and the fish arrived as promised still frozen solid! Thank you Cole Point!
