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!

Sand Dune Oysters from Souris, PEI, CAN, are highly praised for their plumpness and intense flavor. These oysters, grown on the famous red sand dunes, take 4 to 6 years to reach market size. They are known for their bright green shells and rich, briny taste with a ghee-like finish.

"We found these oysters to be one of our favorites. They are perfectly briny right out of the shell, PLUS are big and deep enough for us to do the baked oysters we love with spinach, Bacon, pickled jalapenos and a bit of parmesan. Will definitely look for these again."
"This is the first time I ordered oysters online and I was blown away. They were nice and salty just the way I like them. Also size really nice. Best oysters I've ever had."
"Very plump, easy to shuck nice and clean. Nice size oyster for oysters Rockefeller and mild not real salty to eat raw. Would definitely order again"
"I received these on the day expected. Opened box . Was hit with a rotten smell. Was not happy. But my friend visiting encouraged me to shuck them . Ordered 50 and 11 were rotten stinky horrible. Emailed ICO. They didn't blink. Gave me a refund . A fair refund. But when I ate the good ones . Oh my. Best oysters ever."
"Oysters were excellent. I ordered 100 oysters but 6 were already dead so I tossed those in the trash."
"These were wonderful oysters. Sweet and slightly briny with plenty of liquor. Easy to shuck."
"Have never really had any issues over the years. Occ one or two oysters are bad but had 8 that were dead and black (out of 50) and because they smelled so bad, affected the whole batch. Hard to assess unfortunately."
"The oysters arrived warm, a few were already opened, the box smelled. I wrote to the company and received no response…. We’ve ordered from this company since peak Covid… it was amazing to have fresh oysters delivered to our home. We were very pleased, until now. I understand that mistakes happen, but the lack of response to us after the last shipment was extremely disappointing."
"I was looking forward to my first experience with PEI oysters. I was thrilled to see the heavy green shells . I was a bit dissappear in the size of them however. I notice a trend that the farmed oysters are getting smaller every year . They were very clean . Some of the cleanest and freshest oysters I have gotten from ICO . I made my thru the first 18 of them and I realized that 5 of them were dead and smelling awful. So now on my first day of receiving them I have a high percentage of bad ones . These are the biggest number of bad ones I have ever had in an order from ICO ever. I'm going to knock out the rest of them today to see what the total number actually is. They have a nice clean crisp flavor - cups are not deep so there is not a big bite with these . On the small size - several were under an 1 1/4 " wide . I can saw I had them and will not be ordering any more. They are definitely worth trying if you have never had PIE oysters before . Perhaps yours will be fresher than mine."
"The water is so cold in PEI, these are great even in the summer"
