Fresh Oyster Dining in Waters near Sydney

Who does not love Oysters. But, to taste fresh New South Wales Australian Oysters standing in the same waters as the Oysters is something else!

A road trip from Sydney which was pleasantly a short drive of just over an hour using the new North Connex freeway to Brooklyn. The via a fast speed barge on the Hawkesbury River to the Sydney Oyster Farm.  

To see first hand how the Oysters are affected by climate change, floods and rising sea temperatures and, of course dine in style in the waters.
It was a tour conducted by Sheridan Beaumont, third generation NSW Oyster farmer, who explained how this industry is adapting to the changing environment including the diversification into eco tourism.

A must do for anyone who loves Oysters and wishes to get a unique experience of outdoor dining in the waters!
