Celebrate the bounty of the sea
Published on Wed, Oct 6, 2010 by Sequim Gazette StaffRead More News
The bounty of the Olympic coast will be on grand display during the ninth annual Dungeness Crab and Seafood Festival Oct. 9-10.
The event will be held on the waterfront in Port Angeles from 10:30 a.m.-8:30 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Sunday.
Come hungry. The 8,000-square-foot Windermere Real Estate Crab Central food tent will feature "an old-fashioned crab feed," complete with large kettles of whole crabs dished up with fresh corn and coleslaw. Music and wine tasting will be provided by the Olympic Peninsula Wineries Association. Wet your whistle with Northwest beer and beverages.
At Crab Central and throughout the grounds visitors will enjoy crab cakes, grilled wild salmon, fish tacos, crab enchiladas, crab Rangoon, clam chowder, crab bisque, seafood gumbo, Northwest paella, oyster po'boys, local homemade organic berry and pumpkin pies and more.
Join in the fun during the High Tide Seafood and Wilder Auto Grab-A-Crab Tank Derby Saturday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m-4 p.m. The event, held on the Port Angeles Pier, lets the entire family participate in "an unorthodox derby" by crabbing from large hold tanks using crab snares and bait. The $5 entry fee allows participants to crab for 10 minutes, no license or gear needed.
