A summer barbecue on San Juan Island would not be complete without fresh oysters. Residents of Friday Harbor and San Juan Island are lucky enough to have this world renowned oyster farm in their backyard.

Looking out into Westcott Bay.

Regular sized oysters, extra large oysters, mussels, and clams are available. Just grab a bag and start loading up.

If you just can’t wait to dig into your fresh shellfish they have some picnic tables available as well as lemons, hot sauce, and oyster shucking equipment so you can have a few raw oysters right on the spot.

On our most recent visit we picked up the oysters for $15 per dozen and the clams for $6 a pound.
