Our Flagship oyster, grown right here in Duxbury, Massachusetts. We may be biased, but we think these oysters are pretty damn near perfect. The quintessential East Coast oyster, they’re consistent yet complex, with up-front notes of ocean brine and seaweed, and a smooth, sweet finish. Deep cups encourage plump meats for a toothy, chewy bite you can really sink your teeth into. Well balanced from beginning to end, these oysters are ideal for oyster newbies and seasoned pros alike.

"Another wonderful experience with Island Creek! FedEx dropped the ball on our delivery, but IC made it right with a new shipment sent out on the day of our choosing. We often buy oysters from other farms when we order from IC - variety is the spice of life! - but there's something special about these original Island Creeks, and we keep coming back to them. Thanks for the great customer service!"
"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"
"Tender and not too briny Very easy to shuck with a nice deep cup. Great slurping, along with a good hot sauce and some cold brews on a nice summer day"
"This was a beautiful delivery of 50 Island Creek oysters. They were in excellent condition upon delivery and very delicious! Highly recommend Island Creek Oysters!"
"I live in the boonies and so shipping fresh seafood comes with a little bit of a risk. Last year we ordered 100 Oysters and they got delayed and then misplaced and found a few days later, warm and inedible. Refunded, no questions asked. This year the delivery was on time but we didn't receive a second pound of crab meat. Refunded, no questions asked. These guys are the best when it comes to customer service."
"Penny’s large oysters from Yarmouth ME were delicious. They have a sweet taste with a burst of salinity."
"Taste good! Super Fresh and crisp. Salinity good, a bit more than I like. My 4/5 stems from size. Too small for me! But if you Love super small these are for you! I like just a bit more meat. Tougher than most to shuck. Not disappointing but like others better!"
"I have been eating island creek oysters for years. Never saw oysters this small. Also, out of the 2 dozen I ordered for july 4, 2 were empty."
"These were delicious, but not just small - closer to tiny. I have enjoyed every Island Creek order in the past, but these were below expectations. They were at a special discounted price, but just barely worth it."
"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."
