Can get busy but a lovely family atmosphere. The pontoon has crabbing on either side and then a boat harbour at the very end which you are not able to crab from.nnWe took a boat out with Lady Grace boat trips. She was lovely and confirmed why we hadn’t caught any crabs that day.nnA tip for all crabbers…. The wind blows across the water so the crabbing lines being thrown in to the water don’t get to the bottom where the crabs are. Grab some stones to put in your net/crabbing line bags to make it sink to the bottom. Some bacon or chicken will then lure the crabs in and you’ll catch plenty!nnSome lovely restaurants nearby for a bite to eat or a few drinks.nnParking can be limited so try to get there early to mid morning at peak holiday times.
Great place to visit, crabbing is a must here!!! Please note....do not park on the slip.
Came and did some crabbing with the kids, plenty of small ones caught, but also caught some nice large ones, loads of places to eat around the area, some nice looking pubs.
A good place to fish for crabs, swim and eat seafood
Dinghy boat trips available for reasonable money. Crabbing Central and they are hungry buggers. We caught loads. Several places to eat and drink close by. Parking can be trouble. Try some fresh caught fish from the cabins.
