Daily Spot Prawn Sales at Steveston

If you can’t make it for the Festival, daily dock sales offer freshly caught spot prawns straight from the sea, sold directly from the vessel.

This means locals can indulge in the freshest spot prawns daily, procured right off the boat at Steveston Harbour. They’re open from 8am until sold out.
