Fishing has always been the main industri. "Silver from the sea" - herring has come and gone over the centuries, bringing alternating poverty and welfare to the fishing population.

The west coast offers good fishing. All kinds of tours are available to book beach stops, handline, crab fishing and lobster safaries. Or, why not go on a tour to see the seals.

About Lobster Safari
Happiness is finding a live lobster when you pull up one of your own pots! Join the real fishermen as they set off in the lovely autumn air to fish for "black gold". Onse ashore, cook your lobster and enjoy it with a cold beer. The season starts on the first Monday of September every year.
