tiger prawn tours

What may have started out as a mundane sightseeing bus trip turned out to be an entertaining and informative presentation on the district and a thriving aquaculture set-up growing prawns for the domestic and overseas market.There are some 23ha of "ponds" in which the prawns are bred and raised.The presentation covers all aspect of the business through to the processing of the prawns and preparations for market.It was pleasing to hear that some 60% of the processed product went to the Australian market.To complete a pleasant day out visit Cabbage Tree Point and Jacobs Well township.This are is well know as a great fishing spot.
