Attention all foodies! Saldanha Bay Hotel on the beautiful West Coast will be hosting its annual Seafood Festival on 26 November and one lucky reader will win two tickets, plus a stay at the hotel.
Saldanha Bay Hotel has earned a reputation as a destination for seafood lovers. From humble beginnings as a fishing village, the town of Saldanha has grown into one of South Africa’s key producers of mussels and oysters over the years. In celebration of this rich heritage and the love of good food, Saldanha Bay Hotel initiated its inaugural Seafood Festival in 2019.
The festival will take place on the hotel’s lawns on the water’s edge overlooking the bay. Festival attendees can sample tasty West Coast treats from a variety of food stalls offering everything from oyster experiences to snoek on the fire to burgers and grilled items. Local craft beer and wine tastings will be on offer, as well as a variety of local artisan stalls selling handmade wares.
