1-Day Coffin Bay Tour
On this Coffin Bay Oyster Farm tour from Port Lincoln, discover Australia’s premier oyster-growing destination, untamed nature, and wildlife.
Your day begins as it does for most Eyre Peninsula locals, resetting and rejuvenating by the ocean. This tour takes in Coffin Bay National Park, home to the Eyre Peninsula's best beaches, including Almonta Beach. Roam secluded, sandy shores without another soul in sight - except for the resident mob of kangaroos and emus. Then settle in by the sea for morning tea with panoramic views.
Venture around the coast to our next destination, where world-famous Coffin Bay oysters are primed for tasting. Meet the local producers – Chris and Linda – and learn about the Eyre Peninsula's enviable seafood industry as you glide through the crystal-clear waters of this working oyster farm. Pluck your very own oysters straight from the ocean, learn how to shuck and then sample your hand-picked oyster!
After your oyster epiphany, cruise back to shore. You may even be joined by the local pod of dolphins who call these waters home.
Your gourmet seafood escape continues back on land. Pull up a seat overlooking the bay at 1802 Oyster Bar & Restaurant, where head chef Andy will introduce you to read more...
