Ceduna and nearby Denial Bay and Smoky Bay form a major oyster-growing district, celebrated each October at the town's Oysterfest.
The far west's oyster country
The sheltered, clean waters around Ceduna — including neighbouring Denial Bay and Smoky Bay — make up one of South Australia's most important oyster-growing regions. Oysters grown here are shipped to restaurants around the country, and you can buy them barely hours out of the water from local sheds and outlets.
The town wears its oyster heritage proudly, dedicating an entire festival, Oysterfest, to it each long weekend in October. For travellers on the threshold of the Nullarbor, a final dozen Ceduna oysters is something of a rite of passage.
