Bluff oysters
Bluff oysters are thought to be the best in the world. These delicate and tender shellfish are a unique product as they are from the last wild oyster fishery in the world and are only available for a certain amount of time each year. The fishing season is from March (to be announced).
Marina Fish and Oysters is a family run business who supply Bluff oysters to New World, fresh off the boat. Greg Mead who skippers their vessel, The Southern Enterprise, is the 5th generation in their family to fish for Bluff Oysters.
Once caught they are processed and packed at the family factory in Bluff. What inspires this family business, is to not only continue their legacy but to supply the public with a unique and quality product to enjoy. They always look forward to the first day of the season, just as much as the public look forward to their first taste for the season.
