Mere Point Oyster Farm Tour in Portland, Maine

Join us on a scenic ride of Casco Bay on our way to tour one of Maine’s premier oyster farms. Along the way we will cruise through some of Casco Bay’s less visited waters for great wildlife viewing before arriving at Mere Point Oyster Farm. The tour will include a shucking demonstration, a tour by boat of the farm, opportunities to watch the crew at work tumbling and sorting oysters as well as 6 included samples to slurp down! This is a great way to combine a scenic boat ride with a first-hand experience of one of Maine’s burgeoning sustainable fisheries. Seats are limited and sell out quickly so book while you can!
