FAQ
Food & Drinks
Can I eat the oysters raw right off the beach?
If you are a big fan of raw oysters, we recommend that you book for an experience in April – May. The WA Department of Health advises that all shellfish recreationally harvested during the months of May-September, should be cooked thoroughly to avoid illness due to Vibriosis. Please read the Vibriosis Fact Sheet for more information.
Do I really need rubber boots?
Rubber boots will keep your feet dry and happy. And the taller the boots, the further out you will be able to go to grab the absolute freshest shellfish. Don’t have any? No sweat! We have them available for rent for $10/pair. Just select your size during checkout!
Will shin-height rubber boots be ok?
They will certainly work just fine! But just remember, the taller the boots, the further out you’ll be able to go to grab the freshest shellfish.
Location
