Why it's worth checking out
Get Shucked is one of Bruny Island's most famous food stops, an oyster farm and bar on the Bruny Island Main Road at Great Bay, just off Tasmania's south-east coast. A highlight of the island's renowned gourmet trail, it serves oysters about as fresh as they come — grown right there in the surrounding waters.
The appeal is that paddock-to-plate, or rather bay-to-plate, freshness in a relaxed, casual setting — a quintessential Bruny Island experience that pairs perfectly with a day exploring the island's beaches, lighthouse and other local producers. For seafood lovers, it's an essential and memorable stop.
With a 4.7 rating from more than 3,700 reviews, it's a hugely popular destination. Opening hours, availability and the island's vehicle-ferry access all vary, and a spot this popular can get busy, so it's worth checking current details before you make the trip — and allowing time for the ferry crossing and the drive, and pairing the visit with the island's other gourmet stops to make the most of the day.
