About Us
Our oysters come fresh straight from the farm on Cape Lookout and Harkers Island
Oysters Carolina is dedicated to providing the people of North Carolina with the freshest shellfish in the state.
All of our oysters are pulled from the water the day they are delivered directly to you. Our award-winning oysters are also consistently rated one of the saltiest in the entire U.S. with an average salinity of 31ppt-33ppt. Oysters Carolina is proud to provide North Carolinians fresh North Carolina seafood. North Carolina has the best shellfish and Oysters Carolina has the freshest.
Oysters Carolina Takes Sustainability
To New Heights
Though oyster farming is notoriously demanding, we decided to up the degree of difficulty. We don’t use a davit – or any other mechanical contraption – to lift the hefty oyster cages; only arm strength. Even using plastic is frowned upon.
