Oyster Farm Tour
Visit our working Cape Small oyster farm! Learn how our oysters are grown & harvested plus you can even get your hands dirty & help us with some oyster sorting if you desire!
When our cameras are rolling, you're right there with us. Real lobster fishermen come and go, oyster harvests run in season, and the working waterfront does what it's done for over a century — work.
Open Full ScreenLocated in the heart of Phippsburg, Maine, 47 Wallace Circle is a multi-dimensional maritime facility serving as a collaborative epicenter for Maine's aquaculture and working waterfront.
Historically known as "The Store," this landmark building has evolved into a tiered ecosystem. Today, it serves as the shared headquarters for several distinct maritime businesses. We are built around generational families, "from aways," and visitors alike—providing working waterfront access, a hub for educational experiences, and serving as the de facto headquarters for The Basin Oyster Restoration Project.
(And yes, at times, we host a secret weekend Pokemon Club!)
Our experiences are unique and non-cookie cutter. Our hope is you leave feeling like you are part of the community with a genuine sense of what life on the coast of Maine can be like.

A truly unique experience, rain or shine. With working lobster wharfs on each side, fishermen will come & go as we guide you step by step through the process of shucking open an oyster!
Come for the food, stay for the views, and leave with a story. A true taste of Phippsburg right on the working waterfront, featuring curated oysters and fresh lobsters.
Stop in anytime! We stock our self-service farm stand with fresh, unshucked oysters straight from the water, legendary lobster roll boxes, classic penny candy, and more.
(And while you're here, check out the live marine turtle aquarium—just please don't pet them!)
