Coffin Bay is classified as a maritime wilderness area for good reason. Its pristine waters and extraordinary network of bays and inlets are unrivaled along the Australian coast and the source of some of the world's most prized oysters. A behind-the-scenes visit to a working oyster farm offers a rare and authentic glimpse into this celebrated industry with freshly harvested oysters in hand before heading into Coffin Bay National Park to master the art of shucking.
Here a perfectly curated oyster and gin pairing awaits amid dramatic limestone cliffs and sweeping beaches home to diverse wildlife and over 150 bird species. The day concludes with a relaxed coastal seafood cook-up paired with local flavors and the unhurried beauty of this remarkable wilderness.
