Effingham Inlet
Barkley Sound, Vancouver Island 🌎 See Oyster Map
Premium oyster from the nearly unpopulated, Pacific-facing side of Vancouver Island, home to countless bears and sea otters and a very few oyster farms. Effingham Inlets are grown in deep water in the fjords of Barkley Sound and tumbled frequently. The result is deep cups, a cornucopia shape, and beautiful, polished pink-and-purple shells. The flavor is pure Pacific.

Thank you moneal59! We’d love to use your testimonial on our website, let us know!
Truly wonderful. Perhaps the obscure location makes them a little less known but a remarkable oyster all the same…………Large and firm with a wonderful briney taste ( you have to like brine) and a smooth buttery finish. Worth hunting them down!!!
