Fantastic time with heavy pours of wine. We went out on a great evening and tasted oysters from a variety of the local farms. The hosts were great and we even saw a few seals.

A fantastic boat tour, really good value and wonderful staff who give incredibly oysters for a good price. Unfortunately one guest was really rude to the owner and threatened to give a bad trip advisor review. The owner was so professional and didn't allow this one guest to spoil it for us all.
