crabbing in Grayton

We have been coming to the area for 20 years and really miss Patrones. Our
children always looked forward to crabbing off the dock. Any suggestions?

There is a public dock at the end of the road east of the Red Bar. Or you could go to Grayton Beach State Park, Eden State Gardens, Cessna Park . . .

The Seabar has a dock on the bay and you could get a burger if you come up empty.

Our dock is on Western Lake sort of near where Patone's used to be and we have never minded other folks using our dock for crabbing or just sitting and enjoying breezes and views.

Might be nice to say hello to the folks using the PINK house when you visit the dock. Most likely some of our relatives and I doubt they'd mind.

Good luck.

If you want to burn some energy while you crab, consider wading in the (old) lake outflow channel with a small net. If you go to the beach at Grayton, just walk into the channel and follow it away from the ocean. You will stumble upon crabs galore, the kids will have a blast chasing them through the shallow water
