Must Do Experience!
Zara provided a wonderful oyster experience for the entire group. DK Connemara Oyster Experience was not only fun, it was also very informative. Love it!

Description
Good to Know
This is a multi-sensory experience, come and enjoy the beautiful views while we take you through the process of farming oysters. Learn about the history of the farm (it's one of the oldest in Ireland). And of course try some of our delicious, fresh, briny oysters. All of our guides have hands on experience working on the farm and will be more then happy to answer any questions you through at them.
Oyster tasting
On the activity, which is a brilliant thing to do to amuse the kids (6+) even on a bad weather day, you will tour our farm, and learn about the farming process from seed to plate, you will get to see the team working on the farm whether it be grading, packing, or turning bags in the bay.
Once we have taken you through the whole process, we demonstrate how to shuck an oyster and if you’re feeling adventurous you can shuck your own oyster! The first oyster is an explosion of taste, as your pallet adjusts with the second and third, you will taste the true flavour, which has been described as sweet, having creamy notes with a touch of earthiness.
This is a multisensory, authentic experience delivered in a magnificent setting at the foot of the Connemara National Park and 15 minutes’ drive from Kylemore Abbey.

Don’t miss this!
Our guide, Pia , did a wonderful job. She kept our small group engaged explaining the history and changes of oyster farming in the area. The different current methods are fascinating. Sampling at the end was delicious!

Very educational and interesting!
What an interesting info session about the process of growing/cultivating oysters ! It was extremely informative, educational and fun - a very good show and tell with lots of examples to touch, feel and see. Pia was wonderful - so pleasant and very knowledgeable! The farm is very rustic and authentic - not commercial at all which added to the experience ! Highly recommend this !!
