Barilla Bay Oysters - Hobart CBD and Suburbs

Barilla Bay is an oyster farm, restaurant and gourmet food store at Cambridge, southern Tasmania. Barilla Bay is a 15-minute drive from central Hobart (14 kilometres/nine miles), and is close to Hobart airport.

Surrounded by landscaped gardens, Barilla Bay is a light-filled, architecturally designed complex that overlooks the bay and oyster farm. The Barilla Bay Restaurant, open seven days a week, features fresh Tasmanian produce and of course, the famous Barilla Bay oysters, matched with fine Tasmanian wines and beers. The property has a private dining room perfect for special occasions, cocktail parties or meetings. There is also a fine selection of luscious Tasmanian produce in the food store.

You can join a deliciously fun and informative tour of the Barilla Bay Oyster Farm. On this shore-based, 45-minute tour you will see Barilla Bay’s world-class facilities and taste succulent, ocean-fresh oysters that are exported across the globe. Your guides will show you how oysters are grown from tiny spat to full maturity. You’ll learn about the history of Barilla Bay, the family business, the importance of tides, and the company’s commitment to ensuring the preservation and conservation of Tasmania’s pristine waters. Tours operate daily and bookings are essential.
