Coffin Bay Oyster Farm: Private Boat & Harvest Experience

Glide by private charter boat through the pristine Coffin Bay National Park estuary and harvest your own world-famous Pacific oysters straight from the leases, shucked and paired with Eyre Peninsula white wine on deck.

What to expect

Your guide — a working oyster farmer — poles the flat-bottomed boat through mirror-still tidal channels flanked by mangroves and pristine dunes inside the national park. You pull the oyster cages yourself, select your haul, and learn the art of shucking before eating them raw with lemon and a glass of cool-climate Eyre Peninsula white. The sheer remoteness and clarity of the water make this feel like a private corner of the planet.
