Oyster farm & tasting tour

A guided journey through Merimbula’s working oyster farm. Start at the jetty, then cruise quietly through the estuary to the leases, where you'll wade through the water and learn how oysters are grown, flipped, and harvested. Shuck your own from the basket, guided by your host, and taste them where they grow — fresh, unadorned, unforgettable.

Bree Kirkem

“Pure magic. Every moment—from the boat ride to tasting oysters at a table in the middle of the water—was surreal. Fun, luxurious, unforgettable. A once-in-a-lifetime experience I’ll be raving about for years.”

James Gill

“An absolute standout. James was engaging and passionate, and eating oysters straight from the water was unforgettable. A must-do in Merimbula. We’ll definitely be back on our next work trip.”
