Whether you are visiting The Hatchery for dinner, or booked one of Oyster Seed Holding's (OSH) oyster *Hatchery Tour and Tasting experiences on a Friday night, take your aquaculture experience one step further by booking an oyster farm tour by boat!
The boat tour will take off from the floating dock at The Hatchery. Captain Trey, a commercial watermen, will take you to a nearby oyster farm on the Haven to show you how oysters are raised from seed to adults by oyster farmers. Boat tours are run at 5:30pm and 7pm every other Friday and must be reserved in advance. Enjoy the oyster-centric menu and drinks at the food truck afterwards for the full cradle-to-plate experience!
Hatchery Tours:
*OSH offers oyster hatchery tours and tastings at their facility on Fridays from May through August. Guests receive a 30 minute tour of their hatchery facility, then get to sample local oysters paired with wine. Our boat tours can be booked separately. You must reserve the entire boat in advance. (Maximum 6)
When to plan your boat trip
Bookings are made in advance. If you book a boat tour and a hatchery tour in the same evening, please allow 1 hour buffer between tours. Boat tours are run at 5:30pm and 7pm. For example, if you booked a 6:00pm hatchery tour, you can only book the 7pm boat tour.
