Events in Western Australia - Mandurah Crab Festival (March)

Mandurah is about an hour drive south of Perth and annually holds an event they call the 'Crab Fest'. This is a great opportunity for backpackers to get together and share their sexually transmitted diseases and public lice.

No, wait. The Crab Festival in Mandurah is named so because the area is famous for the crabs that call the estuary there home. During season, crabbing is very popular in the area and during the festival, a range of Mandurah Crab/crap dishes are available.

On one of our South West Tours, we made Crab Fest one of the first stops. Given the crowd numbers and sea of people, it took our Tour Guide less than 2 minutes to lose every single tour guest. All of whom had wandered off in various directions. Luckily we had already made plans to meet at the town's #1 Tourist Attraction for Backpackers (the bottleshop).
