Oysters and Crustaceans

The Boathouse is famous for its wonderful selection of oysters, crustaceans and molluscs; and our Head Chef Colin Barker is in daily contact with Australia’s top seafood suppliers to source the highest quality and freshest seasonal produce available.

On our daily menu you will find at least 12 oyster varieties, such as Sydney rock oysters, native Angasi oysters from the NSW coast and Pacific oysters, as well as Boston Bay mussels from South Australia, hand dived scallops from Kangaroo Island, Tasmanian lobsters, prawns and crabs.

And if you are looking for a quick meal, we can recommend relaxing in the Boathouse Bar with a tasting plate of oysters (or other light dishes) and a glass of bubbly, wine or beer, all while enjoying spectacular water views. Please be sure to book first.

Oyster Classes

The Boathouse oyster-shucking and tasting classes are always very popular. These are held in conjunction with the expertise of Steve Feletti from Moonlight Flat Oysters and our Head Chef Colin Barker. At these classes, you will receive a superb selection of oysters for tasting, personalised shucking lessons, your own oyster knife to keep, and a glass of sparkling wine. Next classes are in October, please subscribe to our newsletter so you get advance warning of dates.

We are also able to organise private Oyster Classes for social or corporate groups for up to 10 people at any time during the year.
