Some of the best and most memorable holiday experiences are the simplest ones, and a great example of this is crabbing. The Pembrokeshire coastline is the perfect location to while away a morning or afternoon enjoying this low-tech, fun-filled activity that has been amusing holidaymakers of all ages for generations.
All you need is a bucket filled with seawater (to store your catch), a net (not essential), a non-hook crab line (or piece of string and weight), and bait. For reasons perhaps only known to the crabs, a bit of smoky bacon, mackerel or fish works a treat – anything a bit smelly!
The best places to enjoy a spot of crabbing during your holiday are Solva Harbour, Porthclais Harbour, and Porthgain Harbour.
