Your eyes and taste buds will come alove when you stop off in Paternoster for their Crayfish Festival. This year will be the first of many annual festivals to come and the stalls will include snoek braai's, seafood poitjie kos and of course delicious crayfish. The day's focus is on seafood, however there will be a beer garden as well as arts and craft stalls with sea shells and ornaments.

Once you have your ticket in hand and are standing at the entrance gate you will be welcomed with a glass of with and directed to a boat where you will have a selection of Crayfish to choose from. When you have your chosen one it will be cooked or thrown on the coals for a Lekker Braai and you glass of wine will be topped up while you wait.

Your children can have their face painted or jump on the jumping castle while the dj will entertain the crowd with some great beats. One of the fisherman can also take you out on his boat and if you are lucky you will catch a glimpse of the seals & penguins.

Many competitions will be happening throughout the day, such as the biggest catch of the day and the best crayfish potjie.
