Croagh Patrick Seafood Tours

About

Croagh Patrick Seafoods is a well-established family business producing fresh, delicious Clew Bay native oysters, award-winning Pacific oysters, mussels and clams. For a quarter of a century the Gannon family has produced shellfish in mari-culture sites on the shores of Clew Bay beside Croagh Patrick for which the company is named. Padraic offers a fully guided tour on the shore of Clew Bay. He will tell the story of the history of fishing on Clew Bay, how the oysters are cultivated today, how the oyster seed is grown and what husbandry is involved. You can walk along the shoreline to see how the oysters are grown. As part of the tour you get to sample a Clew Bay oyster fresh from the bay. Our new custom bult visitor centre opened to the public on 23rd June, 2023. In addition to a new self-guided tour our guests can now sample fresh & grilled oysters, steamed mussels, smoked salmon, tea, coffee, Mescan beer and wine.
