Port Hughes is a coastal town with much to offer laidback travelers. Tourists can start by dining at the outdoor beer garden of Port Hughes Tavern, made better by their exquisite seafood and steak grub. Walk 69 meters (226.38 feet) more to arrive at Port Hughes Jetty, where reeling in blue swimmer crabs, garfish, tommy ruff, or squid is a must before you leave.
