Sydney Rock Oysters - Sapphire Coast Oysters, New South Wales

Merimbula Lake

Merimbula Lake is a true open coastal lake, lined by salt marsh, wetlands and mangroves. Its sandy seabed provides ideal growing conditions for the Sydney rock oyster, with more than 100 years of modern farming history.


With minimal freshwater runoff, Merimbula Lake oysters contain high levels of mineralisation and saltiness, balanced by medium to high sweetness. Umami comes from the leafy underwater canopy of seagrass meadows, as well as the nutrient runoff of salt marsh and wetlands following times of rain.
