Itinerary
Take a short drive down the coast to board CBO1 for a taste of world-famous Coffin Bay oysters. As you sit back and relax, a veteran oyster farmer will share the history of oyster farming and the secrets behind producing world-class oysters. Learn how to shuck like a pro and have the option to purchase local sparkling wine to complement these delicious morsels. For an even more immersive experience, upgrade to the 3-hour Oyster Farm and Bay Tour. This extended journey cruises 16km into the crystal-clear turquoise waters to an oyster farm. Along the way, you'll marvel at the stunning Coffin Bay coastline, with views of secluded islands, pillowy beaches, and, if you're lucky, playful pods of dolphins. This tour includes waders, allowing you to walk among the oyster beds in the calm waters.
Your day also includes visiting Coffin Bay National Park, home to some of the Eyre Peninsula's best beaches, including Almonta Beach, and a habitat for many kangaroos and emus. You will also enjoy a relaxing lunch at Oyster HQ, where you can enjoy a range of local produce sourced from the surrounding sea and land while overlooking the bay.
Back in Port Lincoln, sweeping views await at Boston Bay Wines. Perched above the Southern Ocean, sample a range of premium wines
We drop you at your Port Lincoln accommodation between 5 pm and 5.30 pm.

This was one of the best tours I’ve ever been on! We did so much, from visiting the national park, to oyster farming, to wine tasting. Pick up was seamless, the vehicle was very comfortable, and lunch was delicious too! And best of all was our tour guide, Joe. He was so kind, knowledgeable, and just plain fun! He’s an awesome person and my favorite Australian ever! If you’re in the Port Lincoln area, this tour is a must!!

Excellent personalised trip.
We did a full day tour to Coffin bay private tour with Hassie the owner. Great day, heaps of info, awesome scenery, great seafood and wine, and the Coffin Bay oyster tour was really good. Hassie was a great host, nothing was too much trouble.
