Melshell Oyster Shack

More Information

Melshell Oyster Shack provides a superior oyster experience from our farm in Great Oyster Bay. Premium Natural Oysters together with other local seafood and cheeses. For adventurous guests, a self cook kebab experience at your table is a must. Look out for our iconic funky blue van at Yellow Sandbanks, Dolphin Sands Tasmania. Just 15 minutes north of Swansea.

Discover our farm’s story and meet the family. Visitors have described our produce as “Blindingly Fresh” and “Dolly Parton Plump”. Sit on the river bank at Moulting Lagoon and enjoy the freshest oysters and learn all about the growing process.

Many activity options: shucking lessons, wander around our shell gardens, check out our aquarium or sit on the jetty and dip your toes into the cool waters.

We are 3 km from the access to Nine Mile Beach a stunning white sand swimming beach with amazing views of the Freycinet Peninsula.
