Boston Bay Mussels

Boston Bay Mussels had humble beginnings in the most pristine waters on the planet, in the Eyre Peninsula’s Boston Bay. It is an ideal location where mussels naturally take advantage of the nutrient rich waters from upwellings in the Great Southern Ocean, delivering a beautiful sweet mussel.

Ocean fresh mussels all year round

At the start of the season in June, our mussels are typically ‘petite’ with 60-70 pieces per kilo and a meat to shell ratio of nearly 50 per cent. As the harvest year continues, the mussels grow in size to 30-35 pieces per kilo by March.

At Eyre Peninsula Seafoods, we make sure that the mussel meat to shell ratio remains high throughout the season, and importantly that we always deliver an excellent eating mussel.
