The tour was truly amazing and packed with information. I really appreciate it; it made my husband's birthday unforgettable.
The host was both entertaining and knowledgeable, which made for a delightful experience. Wading through the oyster racks was a unique activity. On our return, we also spotted a pod of dolphins and a few seals.
Coffin Bay is breathtaking. This tour offered a fantastic opportunity to immerse ourselves in the life of an oyster farmer for a morning, learning about oysters and enjoying them after a fun time in waders at the farm. The crew on the lovely boat was very professional, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout the experience. My husband and I strongly recommend this tour. It’s truly a unique experience.
An outstanding experience overall! Our guide was both knowledgeable and engaging. We enjoyed a lovely day, and the oysters were absolutely delicious.
This may be the finest guided cruise I've had. Scott's insights and presentation about oyster farming were incredible. Even if you're not a fan of oysters, you'll thoroughly enjoy the experience, feeling as if you're on solid ground.
The three-hour tour was definitely worth the cost. It offered a scenic experience that was also very educational. The skipper and crew were excellent. Exploring the oyster beds was enjoyable, and the insights into oyster farming's history were captivating. The sheer amount of work involved in oyster farming was astounding and helps clarify their price. The freshly shucked oysters were delightful, particularly paired with a local gin and tonic. On our return journey, we encountered sea lions and seals, which added to the trip. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.
The experience of exploring the natural Coffin Bay oyster farming area was fantastic. The waters were incredibly clear, and the amenities at the yacht club's boat dock were well-kept. The vessel was well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable trip to the oyster farming region. The crew was very welcoming and knowledgeable, providing insightful historical facts about the area. A highlight was wading in protective overalls to explore the oyster farm, which offered perfect opportunities for photos. Tasting fresh oysters and enjoying a drink on the way back to the dock was an excellent way to conclude the trip.
This tour is highly recommended. Although it's one of the pricier options, it's absolutely worth the cost. The experience was well-organized and packed with information. The three hours went by quickly, and the fresh oysters were shucked right on the boat. Additionally, the prices for drinks on board were quite reasonable.
I had a wonderful time on this half-day tour. It was very informative, and the crew was fantastic. The oysters were the best I've ever tasted, and I learned a lot about them!
