Welcome to the

Colchester Oyster Fishery

Colchester Oyster Fishery

This is how we grow our Oysters

Welcome to the Fishery

Our Fishery is on the shore of Pyefleet Creek on Mersea Island off the coast of Essex, where oysters have been farmed since Roman times. Our oysters lay on the river bed roaming with the mineral rich, brackish tides.

We have been supplying oysters and shellfish to the top restaurants, hotels and to your door for over 54 years. We pride ourselves on only supplying the finest quality seafood both from our own river and further afield.

Open Farm Sunday

Fishery Open Day

We are opening the Fishery doors and inviting you to come to East Mersea. We will be giving tours of the Fishery and bringing our oyster boat up to the quay to show you what it's like to be an oyster farmer.

Food and drink will be available in the Long Room and Terrace where you can enjoy spectacular views over the Pyefleet.

OUR SEAFOOD

MUCH MORE THAN JUST OYSTERS

Although we are an Oyster Farm, we sell much more than just oysters. Our other specialties are lobsters and seafood platters. We pride ourselves on only supplying the finest quality seafood both from our own river and further afield.
