Salt-Polished Secrets of Casco Bay: A Private Oyster Farm Tour and Tasting

The skiff noses out from Yarmouth’s town landing and the river lets go, easing you into Casco Bay’s steady pulse. Gulls heckle from the channel markers, the tide tugs at the hull, and the wind—always with a mind of its own here—ruffles the surface like corduroy. A stack of steel oyster cages clinks at the bow. Somewhere below, thousands of bivalves are busy at work, filtering the bay clean one breath at a time.
