Experience Coffin Bay Oyster Farm Boat Tours
Since starting oyster farming in 1996, owners Chris and Linda decided they are ready for a new beginning. Instead of farming the oysters, they decided to build an oyster boat suited for tours and start their very own tourism business, known as Experience Coffin Bay.
Take a tour with the farmer himself to take a close-up look at those world-famous Coffin Bay Oysters, take a three-hour Oyster Farm and Bay Tour or a short and sweet ninety-minute Oyster Farm Tour.
This kid-friendly vessel invites all families to join them onboard.
Experience Coffin Bay can’t wait to have you.
