  • Operating Hours: 1:30 PM - 3:00 PM

Your Experience

You will begin your journey with a scenic trip to an oyster farm located just outside the charming township of Coffin Bay. Along the way, you'll be treated to beautiful views of the Coffin Bay coastline and township, while also learning about the rich history of oyster farming in the region, with a visit to the very first oyster lease.

Once you arrive at the farm, you can sit back and relax as your host, an experienced oyster farmer, shares insights into how the premium Coffin Bay oysters are produced and what unique qualities of the Coffin Bay waterways make them so world-renowned. As an added bonus, you'll be taught how to shuck oysters like a pro! While not guaranteed, it's highly likely you'll witness a pot of playful dolphins accompanying the boat, following you on your journey. To perfectly complement your plate of freshly shucked oysters direct from the source, locally produced wines, beers, and gin are available for purchase. You'll gain a deeper understanding of the pristine Coffin Bay waterways and the sustainable practices that underpin its world-famous oyster production.

For families, children and infants are welcome on the tour, and many find the process of growing oysters, the boat, and the marine life fascinating. However, please note that the skipper's talk, lasting approximately 20-30 minutes, may not hold the interest of very young children. Parents are encouraged to bring a quiet activity like an iPad with headphones or a snack to keep them entertained during this segment. Alternatively, families have the option to utilize the outside seating area during the talk, which offers an ideal vantage point to spot an array of sea-creatures in the oyster farm.

For those seeking an even more immersive experience that includes wading in the sandy-bottomed oyster farm, the longer Farm & Bay tour is highly recommended.

Things to Note

  • All per person prices quoted are in Australian dollars and valid from 1st April 2023 to 31st March 2024.
  • We require a minimum of 4 people for this tour to operate. At the time of your booking you will be notified whether minimum numbers have been met. If minimum numbers have not been met you will be notified once they have. Alternatively you will be notified that minimum numbers have not been met & the tour will not be proceeding (this scenario is unlikely however if it occurs you will be issued a full refund or you will have the option to move your booking to an alternate date).
  • Additionally if our schedule is not showing a particular day, time or tour that you are interested in please contact us & we will try to accommodate your request.
  • Checkin - Tour checkin time is strictly 15 minutes prior to you tour start time at the boat at berth 5 Coffin Bay Yacht Club floating jetty. The boat departs at the tour start time so please don't be late as we would hate for you to miss the boat. We can't wait unfortunately.
  • Tides & Weather - If a high tide or poor weather conditions prevent us from wading at the oyster lease, the wading experience will take place at Kellidie Bay, a stunning secluded beach engulfed with turquoise waters in the wider prime growing oyster region.
  • Tour Duration - Tour duration is an approximate only. If your tour finishes a little early it is only because of less numbers on board that day or weather has allowed us to finish everything a little quicker than normal.
  • What to Bring - We recommend you pack sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, a towel & camera (you are definitely going to want to capture this experience!) plus bathers if you prefer to swim then wade.
  • The weather can also quickly turn on the water, even when fine, sunny conditions are forecast, so we always advise bringing a warm jacket & beanie.
  • Minors - Children 0-4yrs must be strictly supervised by their parents at all times.
