Fleurty's Oyster Tour
Jump on the private bus from Hobart city and be driven to a secluded jetty 30 mins south of Hobart. Set sail cruising south for 7 km across the pristine D’Entrecasteaux Channel. Nestled between Bruny Island and Tasmania’s mainland lies Fleurty’s Point Marine Farm—your destination.
Once moored, you’ll slip on waders and step into clear, cool water to harvest oysters by hand. Learn how these bivalves are farmed, then head back aboard for the shucking lesson. Savour your fresh oysters paired with a glass of local wine with views of the vineyard above.
Your host, an oyster farmer and seasoned seafarer, will share stories of Tasmania’s sustainable oyster industry and hard‑won craftsmanship behind every shell.
Weather permitting, finish with a scenic cruise past Green Island Nature Reserve. Watch for seals, dolphins and maybe even whales gliding past.
As your tour winds down, you’ll be returned to the private bus and driven back to Hobart city. If you’d like, continue exploring: head further south to Woodbridge or Kettering for wineries, cheeseries or lunch at the Oyster Cove Inn.
