Coffin Bay Oyster Events
We currently both grow Oysters in Coffin Bay, as well as showcase these via our restaurant www.oysterfarmtours.com.au

Coffin Bay is home to Australia’s most sought after oysters with their fleshy, creaminess and sweetness that is blended with the crisp saltiness of the pristine waters of the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. Australia is renown for great seafood and Coffin Bay Oysters are highly sought after by both Australian and International Chefs and Restaurants. We are passionate about promoting the fantastic food and w**e that South Australia produces to broaden awareness and to firmly place SA on the ‘must see’ map for interstate and international visitors. It is Gourmet Food and W**e events that promote SA’s exciting and innovative food and w**e culture and will help boost travel and tourism for the state and encourage visitors to Australia to venture out and see all of that SA has to offer. Book in for an Oyster Farm Tour:
Wearing waterproof waders, we wade out into the water, and sit at our semi submerged tour deck 'The Salt Water Pavilion' which is located right in a working commercial Oyster farm. While your feet dangle in the water and the salty breeze blows through your hair, you’ll hear from the Oyster Farmer himself (Ben) about how oysters grow, a bit of history of Coffin Bay and Matthew Flinders as well as learn about Oyster farming practices. We will give you a hands-on shucking lesson, so you can learn to open oysters yourself like a pro, and best of all you get to taste the freshest and most famous Coffin Bay Oysters you’ve ever tasted, straight out of the water! A very unique culinary experience and an epicurean adventure! Choose your own adventure.....select from the options list to create your own tailored and memorable experience by adding a bottle of Sparkling, Riesling, Bloody Mary Oyster Shots, and/or Extra Oysters, all to be enjoyed in the water as part of the tour. And for the ultimate seafood indulgence, pre-book a Seafood Platter to enjoy after the tour at Oyster HQ overlooking our pristine waters of Coffin Bay!
