Consuming this product can expose you to chemicals including lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
Your oysters keep in the refrigerator for 5-7 days! You can order a day or two early to make sure you have them in time for your gathering. They are totally fine hangin’ out in the cool air.
When you receive your package, pull them out of the box (these guys need a little fresh air!). Grab a mixing bowl and throw the mesh bag in the bowl so that the oysters don’t leak all over your refrigerator. Grab a damp cloth and throw the cloth over the bowl. You are good to go for the next 5-7 days. Doesn’t hurt to dampen the cloth each day to keep them moist and chilled.
Only put the oysters on ice before service. The oysters will actually die in the melted fresh water so do not store the oysters on ice. They will not like this.
We ship using FedEx Overnight service. You will receive tracking info after the label has been printed the day before your oysters are set to arrive. We do not require a signature – Fedex will leave your package at your doorstep.
Short answer: YES!
Our ClimaCell thermal liners are made of 90% FSC certified virgin kraft paper and corn starch, which allows you to recycle the insulated liner at home along with the cardboard box.
Not only are the liners water repellant, they’re just as insulating as traditional styrofoam AND they can be recycled up to 5 times. Saving the planet has never been easier.

"Once again perfectly cold oysters arrived for the fourth of July all the way to Idaho. Great packaging kept the oysters cold and I appreciate the little tempurature sensor they ship with them. Oysters arrive pretty dirty but nothing a quick rinse won't fix. Order arrived on schedule"
"If you're feeling *very* hungry for oysters, you can't go wrong with 2 dozen Island Creeks. My girlfriend had a blast shucking them (she's never done that before) and, of course, we had a better time eating them. Will do this again. Also looking forward to chomping down on those U10 scallops."
"We’ve been customers for a long time and in most cases had good experiences. Not so much this time. The oysters were extremely undersized compared to what we’ve gotten before, with about half of the meat. Not worth what we paid. Seems like as they’ve gotten bigger the quality has slipped. Very disappointing."
"Great quality oysters! Very friendly staff when I spoke with them over the phone. Had issue with my first shipment, was FedEx in my home town that did not deliver my order. When I reached out to Island Creek they apologized even though it was not their fault. They gave me a refund right away, and I was able to place another order."
"just want to say that my experience with Island Creek was rad from the jump. called on a Monday just to make sure if I ordered that day, that everything would arrive by Friday. was immediately placed on hold, and the hold music was Led Zeppelin, which put me in a great mood. only got a little way into the first verse before I got to speak with someone, who assured me that everything would arrive on Friday. Friday came, my 50 oysters and lobsters arrived. we ordered the 4 lobsters, but when we opened the box, there was an extra! (ssshhh, don't tell Island Creek) the oysters were delicious and the lobsters were big and meaty. we'll definitely be ordering from Island Creek again in the future!"
"Small and sweet; just 100% delicious. Have several to our friends to have with their 5:00pm martini’s and they went wild over such a perfect accompaniment! Many thanks to Skip Bennet and all the crew for an exceptional product!!!"
"they get better! easy to shuck, briney, fabulous oyster. the italian caviar, 1/4 teaspoon of fresh lemon and you have the best combo with the IC oyster"
"I have been a customer for several years and overall have been pleased. This batch ran smaller than I expected. However,They tasted great and only 1 was not consumable."
"We had a family event and had the oysters shipped to our house at North Myrtle Beach. Out of 50 oysters only had issues with one! They were very delicious. We will be ordering them for next time."
"Received 50 oysters and each one was prefect, sweet and briny juice"
