- Taste fresh seafood dishes from a great selection of stalls, or simply relax with a bottle of wine or local beers.
- Be entertained by talented chefs as well as by our much-loved local seafood heroes. Learn about underutilised species, bring the family to try new experiences and find out why we should all be eating more seafood.
