A tasting event on the Pier at that hour puts you over the water for the part of the afternoon when the light turns, which is the reason to pick this over an ordinary seafood dinner. It is a fixed three-and-a-half-hour window rather than a drop-in festival, so the ticket buys the whole session. The Pier location means the Ferris wheel and the beach are right there either side of it.

What to expect
