A Working Port
Aberdovey has a proud maritime history, being founded around its natural harbour and a thriving shipbuilding community, which in the 18th and 19th centuries saw over 200 wooden trading boats launched, eventually to be seen plying their trade around the world.
The village is now renowned as a high quality tourist resort, but is still recognised as a working port, with its own fleet of fishing boats.
Aberdovey’s fishermen and women are an integral part of our community, every day the Welsh fishing fleet brings ashore a fantastic variety of fresh produce for distribution throughout the UK and specialist markets, where the quality of its catch is highly prized.
