Congratulations to @danielzeichner on his appointment as Minister of State DEFRA. We were grateful he took the time to visit our 4 ports and meet our member last year. We wish him well in his new role.

Some fishing families in Beer, can trace their heritage back to the 1600s. Our members launch off the cobble beach. This small-scale fleet is very weather dependent due to size. If you are in the area, stop by & check out the seafood! #fishermenled #seafood #fishermen
