Havstenssunds Oysters

We have the privilege of living and working in the world’s most beautiful place – the archipelago of northern Bohuslän. Here, nature has created the perfect place to grow oysters. The oyster trade has been going on here for many centuries. With our farm, we want to continue this tradition and put Havstenssund on the map again as a center for oyster production. Our goal is to promote oysters as sustainable and healthy seafood, while at the same time improve the marine environment through the oysters’ filtering properties.

About UsMathias has been a commercial fisherman all his life and Ulrika has a background in the restaurant industry. Together we own and operate Havstenssunds Ostron.
The Farm – We are the first and currently the only commercial farm in Sweden. We have spent many years developing a working oyster farming process.

Our Products

In protected bays around Havstenssund, our oysters grow in the cold, salty and clean waters of Skagerrak. The unique taste and texture of our oysters are qualities that are much appreciated by oyster-lovers. In addition to farming native flat oysters, we also harvest wild native flat oysters and Pacific oysters. The quality of our oysters and the sustainability of our production methods is very important to us. Havstenssunds Ostron is approved by the relevant authorities to farm, harvest and sell oysters. We sell our oysters to wholesalers, fishmongers and restaurants around Sweden. You can also buy oysters directly from us in Havstenssund.

Swedish Oysters from Havstenssund

Twenty years ago, we began experimenting with different methods of growing oysters. It took many years before an efficient and economically sustainable process had been developed. Since 2017, we have both been working full time with farming and harvesting of oysters. Our process is completely natural and we grow the oysters for four years from spat to full-grown oysters. We work all year round to ensure the quality of our oysters.
