Programme of maritime events ahoy

WATERFRONT FILLED WITH MUSIC, FOOD AND ACTIVITIES

- LORNA HUGHES

SEAFEST is back this weekend for another huge celebration of all things maritime. The event will take over Plymouth’s waterfront with live music, food and even a chance to try out water sports.

A new headline music stage, the Seafest Sound Stage at West Pier, will host shanty bands and other live entertainment. Visitors can find stalls selling local produce, crafts and gifts around the Barbican.

There will also be an array of fresh seafood from local restaurants and producers, plus the traditional fish auction in the Barbican. And at Mount Batten, Tinside Lido and Mount Edgcumbe there will be a range of taster sessions to get people in, on, under and near the water including free swimming sessions, scuba diving, sailing, kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding.
