Enjoy an oyster tour and tasting with your host David on his oyster farm. In 2014, David acquired and started restoring the oyster farm at Ballinakill Bay. Their oysters are a pacific oyster (Crassostrea Gigas) and are available all year round. Smell the fresh wild Atlantic air and hear the soothing sounds of the sea. See the farm crew working hard in the water to grow the most perfect, meaty oysters. Touch the oysters when you shuck your own and finish your tour with the taste of a beautiful fresh oyster. The tour lasts approximately 1 hour and goes through the whole process of how the farm brings the oysters from seed right through to your plate. During spring tides, they run longer tours as you get to experience a seashore walk and see the different stages of growth in the water. The tours are suitable for anyone aged 6 years and up. We recommend that you wear water-proof and slip-proof footwear and dress for the weather of the day. Please note that this is NOT a private tour.

Impossible time contacted when we were 20 km from the meeting point after a 2000km journey from Italy . we agreed to give up the tour for the time saying that we were content with the equivalent in oysters. we met 3 boxes of delicious oysters but cost 260 euros (total 60 oysters) They greeted us and here it is over.

Very nice experience! Authentic tour of an oyster farm. We both really enjoyed it. Paul taught you about how the oysters are grown, 'formed', and sorted. Would recommend

A very personal tour with David who gave an interesting account of all the ins and outs of running an oyster farming business, most of which we had never considered. A couple of hours well spent!
