Bluff oysters are renowned throughout New Zealand and beyond and are found for about 6 weeks of the year between March and August.
Only an hour's ferry ride across Foveaux Strait from Bluff, lies Stewart Island; one of New Zealand's largely undiscovered eco-tourism destinations.
Unspoilt, relaxing and incredibly beautiful, it is a showcase for natural New Zealand. With stunning bays, inlets, golden sand beaches and densely forested hills, Stewart Island combines a spectacular mix of landscapes. Fine restaurants in this region serve up many tasty delicacies including Bluff Oysters.
