Brixham Fish Market Tours

On 1st June 2022 to 26th October 2022 Brixham

Early risers won’t want to miss the opportunity to get a fascinating insight into behind-the-scenes operations at England’s largest fish market.

You will see the operational side of the daily fish auction process with up to 40 different species of fish landed and get an insight into how this fascinating process works. You'll leave with an understanding of what’s involved in getting the fish from sea to plate, learn about day boats & trawlers and there may even be a chance to see some grey seals which often frequent the harbour side!

To finish off the morning, you'll enjoy a delicious fish breakfast at Mitch Tonks’ Rockfish restaurant, situated right next door.

The tours are very popular and with only 30 people on each tour they recommend that you book well in advance. On selected dates 1st June to 26th October.

  • Superb - Just loved the steam train from Paignton and boat trip in Dartmouth. A real old fashioned journey, social distancing in place. Great scenery and v.friendly helpful crew.
  • Absolutely fabulous experience - The whole day was fabulous with great weather and steam trains. The line is one of the most scenic you will ever experience and is a must visit if in the area. I will definitely be back again :-)
  • A big thumbs up... - A great time was had by all. The staff were really friendly and great at explaining. We took the steam train then hopped onto the boat where we spent some time in Dartmouth. It's a lovely touch that even the dog gets a ticket. The views from the steam train were so pretty the train and boat were both very clean and comfortable. A big thumbs up from us!
