Kelly Oysters

Kelly Oysters is an oyster producer at Kilcolgan, County Galway, on the inner shore of Galway Bay where the fresh water of the estuary meets the sea.

The area is long associated with native Irish oysters, and the surrounding bay is central to Galway’s oyster season and its festivals each autumn. The business is a stop on the county’s food trail, with tastings and visits available for those interested in how oysters are farmed, graded and handled. Arrange any visit in advance, as production work follows the tides.
