Hinchinbrook’s waterways are home to some of the tastiest and most prized mudcrabs in Australia. These iconic crustaceans thrive in the mangrove-lined creeks and estuaries around Lucinda, Halifax and Forrest Beach.

Locals and visitors alike enjoy setting pots during the warmer months, when mudcrabs are most active. Known for their sweet, tender meat and impressive claws, Hinchinbrook mudcrabs are a favourite delicacy on local dinner tables.
