Mooka Oyster Lease in Smoky Bay

Our Location

Mooka Oysters come from the most remote location with pristine waters in Australia, located next to Eyre Island, South Australia.

The bay is half-moon shaped which allows for a huge flow of water and superior nutrients for oysters to feed on.

The surrounding land is flat and very dry, meaning there is no fresh water run off which can effect the quality of the oysters and, due to its remote location, there is also less chance of disease.

We own enough water to grow 120,000-180,000 dozen oysters per year and we are looking to expand.

Our Factory

The factory is located in the Smoky Bay Aquaculture park only meters from the ocean.

It was established in 2001 and has expanded its infrastructure and staff numbers. We employee 6 full time staff and many other casual staff to help with production during peak periods.

The factory is fully automated and our S.E.D.S machine is capable of sorting up to 250 oysters a minute to ensure our oysters get to you in an efficient manner whilst ensuring the quality is not overlooked.

To ensure quality we grow all our oysters from spat through to sales, enabling us to quality control through the whole process. We currently run three oyster punts which are on the water daily harvesting and maintaining our premium oysters.
