Vessel sinks off Cape Jaffa
Thank goodness it was only the boat! Well done to the rescuers.
China cancels Crayfish from Australia
Robe crayfishermen can’t win this year, but there is a silver lining to every situation. What a great opportunity to sample this delicacy while the price is consumer friendly. Fresh crayfish, straight from the briney, fresh bread, lashings of butter, cracked black pepper – a complete cholesterol fix!
No need to mention it to the doctor – but best to leave the butter out if you really do have high cholesterol.
Robe Crayfish Season Opens
Robe Crayfish season open now
It’s a month later than usual but the crayfish season is open and the crays are crawling into the pots. Fresh cray, fresh bread and a crisp white wine – YUM!
The southern ocean rock lobster industry is important to Robe and attracts many visitors to the town each year.
While staying at ’the shelter’ pop down to Sky Seafoods and select a crayfish. Set yourself up on the deck and indulge in the delicious taste experience of this delicacy. A crisp Sauvignon Blanc from Wangolina is a great match for it.
It all happens in Robe.

Daylight saving already
No more whinging about short days – did you remember to change all your clocks or are you running late? Seems like summer is upon us – garden needs watering, paddocks drying off quickly lambs stacking on the weight.
Spring
Can’t wait for more of those delicious warm days.
If you’re thinking about getting to Robe before the silly season and Santa you’d best have a look at the calendar and book soon as it’s filling fast.
It’s no heat wave but the days are getting longer!
Cold and no rain for a while – pity, we need lots more – but what gorgeous sunny days we’re having after the fog lifts.
baby it’s cold outside
days are still warm in the sun but nights are chilly – snuggle in by the fire and watch a movie or read a good book.
daylight saving ends
Don’t forget to put your clocks forward this weekend – Sunday 4th April. at 2 a.m.
