One shared kit can work
For a short family session, prioritise enough safe lines, one well-sized bucket, a net and a small bait container. Label reusable parts before travelling so they make it home.
Avoid the busiest edge
Holiday harbours can be crowded. Give other families space, keep loose lines and bags away from walkways, and choose a quieter permitted location if safe supervision becomes difficult.

Frequently asked questions
What bait works for crabbing?
Oily fish scraps in a secure bait bag are commonly used. Avoid hooks and do not leave bait or packaging behind.
Do I need a separate bucket for each child?
No. A single roomy, supervised bucket is usually better than several small buckets, provided it is not overcrowded and catches are released quickly.
