Coffin Bay Oyster Walk

The Coffin Bay Oyster Walk is an 8km coastal walking trail that passes through Coffin Bay and Kellidie Bay.

It offers a picturesque experience amidst the coastal vegetation and shoreline of one of Australia's premier oyster growing destinations. The trail starts from Long Beach in the west and ends at Snapper Point in the east, passing by the Coffin Bay boat ramp, town centre, and jetty.

The majority of the Coffin Bay Oyster Walk has a Grade 2 difficulty, making it relatively easy and suitable for most walkers. The well-signposted formed track covers flat coastal areas with rest points and minimal steps, ensuring an enjoyable walking experience. The Coffin Bay Oyster Walk also includes a loop through the Kellidie Bay Conservation Park, which leads to the Coffin Bay Lookout. This lookout provides sweeping views over the waterways and serves as a great spot to rest and appreciate the scenic beauty of the area. The loop to Coffin Bay Lookout is graded as a Grade 3 difficulty, featuring some steep sections.

Another trail option is available from Snapper Point to Old Oyster Town, the site of the original settlement dating back to the 1850s. Located within the Kellidie Bay Conservation Park, Old Oyster Town now only has a well and lavender bush as remnants of its past. This section of the trail has not been graded for difficulty but remains accessible to walkers.

For the best experience, it is recommended to visit the Coffin Bay Oyster Walk during the autumn and spring seasons when the weather is
