What you can expect

Coffin Bay is a hidden gem in winter!

You read right… winter!

Our oysters PEAK during winter - meaning the world's most sought after oysters only exist during winter & our tour offer you the opportunity to indulge in them direct from the oyster farm.

How and why do oysters peak in winter you ask…?

The cooler climate increases upwellings which oysters feed on & thrive from. Upwellings nourish oysters with nutrient rich waters & as a result they develop a firm flesh & embody a magnificent nutty flavour.

Another reason we love oyster farm tours in winter is because more often than not we experience picturesque conditions on the waterways, cool but calm conditions.

Plus our premium waders are guaranteed to keep you dry & toasty warm so you can explore the waterways in complete comfort.

Our seal & sea lion sightings are also spectacular at this time of year, a guest recently describing this part of the tour as “like something out of a David Attenborough documentary.”

Activity itinerary

Discover an oyster farm 16km offshore surrounded by crystal clear, waters. Indulge in the world's most sought-after Premium Season Oysters. Wade through the pure Coffin Bay waterways & witness seals in their natural habitat. Along the journey, you'll experience all the beauty of the pristine Coffin Bay coastline including pods of dolphins playing in the water alongside the oyster vessel (sightings cannot be guaranteed but are highly likely). During our enthralling wading experience you'll discover just how translucent the waters of Coffin Bay are (it's no wonder they nourish & produce the world's best oysters...!)  During winter there is a chance the tide will be too high to wade in the oyster farm. We experience higher tides during winter which enrich our oysters with an abundance of nutrients. If the tide is too high for wading we'll cruise to one of Coffin Bay’s stunning, remote secluded beaches (a hidden gem of a location only accessible by boat). After the wading experience, we retreat to the boat & a veteran oyster farmer will share with you the history of oyster farming. Then we'll cruise to Brother's Island to see the herds of seals.
