FROM SHELL
native oyster brought back from the brink Steven Cooper holds a big fat oyster in his hand. It is a local oyster. It’s not from Coffin Bay nor Narooma. It is a local oyster grown in the waters between Flinders and Shoreham. “It’s an angasi oyster,” says Steven. “An oyster native to these waters. There used to be millions of them in Western Port and Port Phillip, but they were fished out over a century ago. Now I am bringing them back, and they are delicious.”
