About Salcombe Crabfest
Salcombe Crabfest is a vibrant food festival on the waterfront of one of Devon's most beautiful sailing towns. A bustling street market winds through Island Street and Whitestrand, lined with local producers, artisans and food stalls, while chef demonstrations and live music keep the harbourside buzzing throughout the day.
Run entirely by volunteers from the local Rotary Club, the festival raises funds for charity while shining a light on the superb seafood and produce of the South Hams. Free to enjoy and set against the sparkling Salcombe estuary, it is a joyful celebration of coastal Devon at its best.
