Fresh Maine Oysters
Our Oysters
We’re a small, independent oyster farm growing premium oysters in Maine’s Damariscotta River. At Carlisle Island Seafood, we keep things simple and do them right—focusing on quality over quantity. Over the last few years, we’ve been quietly focusing on what we do best: farming fresh oysters. Now, we’ve opened a location to serve them directly to you at our waterfront oyster bar in South Bristol, Maine where you can purchase oysters directly from the farmer.
Visit Us on the Wharf
Pull up a chair on the wharf at Gamage Shipyard and enjoy our oysters just a few miles from where they’re grown. We harvest fresh oysters multiple times a week, so you’re getting oysters at their best all weekend long. At our casual, family-run oyster bar, you can shuck your own or grab a dozen to go. Settle in and stay awhile at our picnic tables and adirondacks overlooking the river, or just stop by to say hello. Not into oysters? We’ve got you covered with soft drinks, and snacks with a view.
All oysters are shuck your own! If you’re a novice, don’t worry — we give lessons.
Where it all goes down:
