From 2 - 4 March 2012, Lamberts Bay will be hosting its’ 11th Annual Crayfish Festival!

Over the years this festival has become known for its’ good ‘old fashioned’ West Coast hospitality, showcasing some of this country’s best known artists, 80 odd fabulous stalls offering clothing, jewellery, food and gifts and crayfish, lots and lots of crayfish!

Crayfish is the star of the show and during the festival it is available in abundance, at ridiculously low prices, making it available for everyone to enjoy! Crayfish will be sold from the Muisbosskerm Graca Crayfish and Wine Stall. (Muisbosskerm is the country’s original open air restaurant situated in Lamberts Bay!) The stall serves crayfish in many traditional recipes and also offers further seafood delights like Muisbosskerm Paella, Hake and Buffalo Chips and Oysters.

FESTIVAL 2012 WILL BE HELD DURING THE CRAYFISH SEASON. CRAYFISH ARE NOT AFFECTED BY THE RED TIDE AND ARE COMPLETELY SAFE TO EAT.

Fancy something a little different? Our other food stalls offer just about every dish imaginable!
For the thirsty over 18’s the Festival Bar will be open throughout the course of the festival!
Activities on the grounds include a Rodeo Bull, Quad Bike Riding and Water Balls!

The Kiddies Corner caters for the little ones’ and entertainment includes sand art, face painting, jumping castles, cotton candy and pancakes. We will be hosting a ‘Kreef Krappie’ modelling competition for children aged 9 - 12 years old, get your entries in early!
