Your day begins as it does for most Eyre Peninsula locals, resetting and rejuvenating by the ocean. This tour takes in Coffin Bay National Park, home to a swathe of the Eyre Peninsula's best beaches, including Almonta Beach. Roam secluded, sandy shores without another soul in sight - except for the resident kangaroos and emus - then settle in by the sea for morning tea with panoramic views across the vast landscape.
Venture around the coast to our next destination, where world-famous Coffin Bay oysters are primed for tasting. Learn about the Eyre Peninsula's enviable seafood industry as you glide through crystal-clear waters to Experience Coffin Bay's working oyster farm. See oysters plucked straight from the ocean, then sample the briny fruits of your labour.
If uncovering remote turquoise oceans and pristine coastal wilderness while indulging in an award-winning farm-to-fork experience sounds like your kind of day, then this tour is perfect for you.
Start your journey by meeting your Untamed Escapes Guide and taking a short drive down the coast to board CBO1 for a taste of world-famous Coffin Bay oysters. Experience Coffin Bay offers two exceptional oyster experiences from which to choose. The rate includes the “Short & Sweet” 90-minute tour, which includes a cruise to the first-ever Coffin Bay oyster farm. 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. This optional upgrade costs an additional $95 per person.
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.
Finally, back in Port Lincoln, you’ll be treated to sweeping views at Boston Bay Wines. Perched above the Southern Ocean, you can sample a range of premium wines before being dropped off at your Port Lincoln accommodation between 5 pm and 5:30 pm.
