Since 2006, our family-run business has been dedicated to offering some of the freshest and creamiest oysters in New South Wales.
Our oyster shed boasts a laid-back and friendly atmosphere; don't anticipate anything too fancy! Our focus is on providing a space that allows the beauty of the 180-degree water views of the Hawkesbury River to complement the exceptional quality of our oysters and seafood. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, we welcome you to join us and become a part of our oyster-loving community.
"We love what we do and put pride into the entire oyster process, from collecting to shucking to selling"
Behind the Shuck: The Realities of Oyster Farming
Like us, oysters thrive in the right environment, and when the weather turns or disease spreads, we just hope that the mortality rate of our oysters isn't too high. 2021 was particularly tough, as heavy floods in March, followed by sustained rainfall, wreaked havoc on the river. The floods disrupted the river's salt concentration, affecting the oysters' ability to feed and resulting in a huge loss for us.
A decline in oyster population doesn't just affect our business; it has far-reaching consequences for the entire Hawkesbury River ecosystem. Oysters play a vital role as natural filters, not only ensuring clarity in the water but also helping maintain nutrient balance within the river.
We love our customers!
To those who have supported us since our beginning, those who bring their families whenever they visit us, and the families who make a stop on their journey - thank you!
