Drift across the glittering Great Oyster Bay on a private charter, tasting freshly harvested Freycinet Peninsula oysters paired with award-winning Tasmanian cool-climate wines — a floating feast in one of Australia's most breathtaking settings.
What to expect
Board a private vessel directly from the farm's jetty on the shores of Great Oyster Bay, framed by the Hazards Mountains. Your host dives down to pull fresh Pacific oysters from the leases as you watch, then teaches you to shuck at the rail. A guided tasting follows — matched with Tasmanian Riesling, Pinot Gris, and Sparkling — as you drift over mirror-flat water. Platters of smoked salmon, local cheeses, and sourdough round out the experience.
Good to know
The farm is approximately 20 minutes' drive from Freshwater Cove; a private transfer can be arranged directly with the operator. Confirm your all-aboard time and allow 3 hours for the full experience. Book well in advance for cruise-day availability.
