What an experience this was. Scott was so knowledgeable on oyster fishing/farming in Coffin Bay. Went the extra mile on taking photos for everyone with the oyster basket. Was great just to have a general chat with. Kian(I hope I’ve spelt that right) was great as well. Was happy to help with everything and was busy shucking all the oysters while Scott gave us the history lesson. Highly recommend this tour, it’s worth every cent and the oysters are the best in the world. We were lucky enough to see dolphins, sea lions and fur seals. Boat facilities are fantastic. It’s comfortable with a toilet on board. Windows that you can open if you want and a seat on the bow. Well done guys.

Highly recommend this tour if you are in Port Lincoln or Coffin Bay. Very comfortable boat with protection from the weather which was a bonus given it was windy and wet the day we were there. Stable boat don’t worry about sea sickness. We got to also see dolphins. Learnt a lot about the area and oyster farming and enjoyed beautiful fresh coffin bay oysters with sparkling wine and gin. Thank you for a great trip!

With so many choices in Coffin Bay for an "Oyster "Experience " it was hard to choose. Experience Coffin Bay Oyster Farm tour was on the more expensive side, but worth every cent. For 3 hours I was immersed in the beauty, history, sights, sounds and tastes of Coffin Bay. The trip out to the Oyster Leases was comfortable with beautiful scenery along the way. Once at the lease we were provided waders to have a wonder around the clear waters, back in the boat we were then treated to an in-depth historical talk on the region and Oyster farming, very interesting. Freshly chucked oysters were served during the presentation, and my gosh, I have never tasted anything so pure. I have now been spoilt!
We then headed back home, stopping along the way to check out some local seal colonies and dolphins.
If you are wondering if it's worth the money.....yes yes and yes! Loved every minute of this trip.

Professional, punctual and passionate. We had a fantastic morning with the crew from Experience Coffin Bay. The tour was the perfect mix of fun and facts. Wading on a working oyster lease and then enjoying freshly shucked oysters with a glass of bubbles a stunning way to start the day. Can’t recommend the Oyster Farm and Bay Tour more highly.

Scotty was the ultimate guide today. Sharing his knowledge of the area and oyster farming.
We had an amazing morning, wading in the oyster farm, eating oysters fresh shucked by Lizzie the shucking Queen, seal and dolphin watching. Absolutely loved it!!!
I would recommend highly to get on a tour with these guys when in Coffin Bay, Port Lincoln and surrounds.

What an excellent tour. The skipper and his crew member were brilliant and the weather was perfect for us. The wading experience was amazing and the water so crystal clear.
I am not a huge lover of oysters so just had a taste - they were certainly fresh.
On the way back we saw sea lions, an Australian Long Nose fur seal and some very inquisitive dolphins who played around our boat for a long time.
A perfect morning out on the beautiful bay - can highly recommend.

Outstanding experience, well worth the trip and cost without a doubt. The tour was amazing, dolphins followed the boat and then we got to wade around the oyster farm in the middle of the bay - magical! Indulged in the best oysters I've ever had, and on the way back spotted some sealions sun bathing on the rock. One of the coolest things I've ever done!

Had a great time on this tour. Got the chance to wear waders and enter the freezing water without getting wet. Tried fresh oysters straight out of the ocean. Didn't really like oysters before that but now love the taste and will always compare others with one of the best in the world. Tour guides were very informative friendly and funny. Added bonus seeing some dolphins playing in boat's bow wave.

The 1/2 day tour was fantastic, I would strongly recommend to add on your itinerary when visiting South Australia!
Putting on waders and walking through rows of oysters was unique, and being able to eat oysters freshly collected from the ocean will stay engraved in my memory for a very long time!
Finally, the guide’s knowledge of the local oyster farming industry made this trip very interesting and educative.

This was such a fantastic experience and certainly worth the eight hour drive from Adelaide! The views were stunning and water so clear to see so much marine life. We had what will undoubtedly be the best oysters of our lives fresh out of the sea. The tour guide gave a fascinating talk on the history of oyster farming in Coffin Bay, which we enjoyed with our wine. Three hours flew by. I will definitely go again if I make it back down to Coffin Bay. Thank you! :)

The tour was amazing! We are very happy with the activity and the crew. They were so friendly and explained many interesting things about the oysters and their history. Initially, it was raining, and we were worried the tour might be canceled. Fortunately, it wasn't because as soon as we started, the rain stopped, and we had a wonderful time!
The oysters were incredibly tasty—the best I've ever had.
To top it off, we saw seal lions and dolphins. Epic day! We highly recommend this experience!

Visiting Coffin Bay for an oyster experience was an absolute delight! Not only did I indulge in the freshest oysters, but the knowledgeable guide made the entire oyster farming exploration an exceptional journey. The experience was a perfect blend of education and indulgence. Understanding the intricacies of oyster farming added an enriching layer to the tasting. The guide's expertise and passion for explaining the process truly elevated the adventure. If you're seeking an unforgettable and informative escapade, this oyster farm tour is an absolute must-try!

We drove 750 km from Adelaide jus to see this amazing location. The tour, the boat and the staff were amazing. The tour was informative, 3 hours long and the oysters were magic. We saw Dolphins and seals as a bonus and the boat was nice and small. Only 12 of us, a very loooonnngggg drive, just so so worth it. 5 stars all the way. Thanks Linda for the great communication in booking too.

On our particular tour there were quite a few tourists and the deckhand was very capable in shucking the required dozens of oysters that were ordered.
The wading experience amongst the oyster lease was great and offered us the perspective of the farmers.
A very good tour.

We really appreciate your feedback Steve and are glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience, information and of course the oysters!
With regards to your wife's waders, we do apologise that we did not have her exact size on the day. We always endeavour to have every guest's exact size, however on tours when multiple guests are the same size we occasionally ask a guest if they are happy to size up. Sizing up in waders can actually be even more comfortable because that extra room becomes more comfortable once immersed in water.
Thank you again for your feedback Steve and we hope you enjoyed the rest of your travels in the Eyre Peninsula!

Hi Geoff,
We're sorry to hear that yesterday's tour did not meet your expectations.
Our oysters are premium pacific oysters plucked from the ocean the day prior to the tour. This is so we can chill them to the optimum temperature for consumption. We then shuck the oysters just minutes prior to serving.
With regards to leases, yes it was unfortunate that there was a rare dodge tide on the day of your tour. On these days we always ensure we get our guests to experience wading in the beautiful turquoise waters as close to the lease as possible.
I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the wildlife sightings. The dolphins and sea lions really did turn it on for us yesterday & the beautiful calm conditions made those sightings even more special.
Enjoy the rest of your time on the Eyre Peninsula & we wish you enjoyable safe travels going forward.
Kindest Regards,
The Experience Coffin Bay Team.

and seals. Truly a wonderful 3 hour tour. Tour departures at different times depending on when is low tide.We got in the water in the waders provided, fun good photo opportunity.
