The Ardrossan Crabbing Competition

Back by popular demand, the Ardrossan Crabbing Competition is back in full swing this upcoming Australia Day for it’s second rodeo, bringing a competitive atmosphere to the Ardrossan jetty with multiple prizes up for grabs.

The Yorke Peninsula’s premier crabbing competition offers beginners and seasoned crabbing veterans alike the chance to show off their skills or learn some new ones along the way.

The day kicks off with registrations opening up from 8am to 10am in the Ardrossan jetty car park. Participants can crab from the jetty, the beach, or from the water in a boat.

Then, participants will spend the next few hours catching as many crabs as they can. At 3pm, the crabbing will cease, and the official weigh-in will be held in the car park until 5pm.

Finally, at 5:30pm, the prize winners will be announced at the awards presentation, held in the Ardrossan Town Square. After the winners have received their prizes, all participants can grab a bite to eat at the sausage sizzle.

Grab your crabbing gear, bring along the family, and make your way to Ardrossan on Australia Day for a memorable outing on the shore.
