What wonderful experience! Visited Glidden Point Oyster Farms for a tour of their operation. Kathryn was our guide and really opened our eyes to the history of the local oyster industry. We learned the history, biology and complexities of oyster farming. Obviously a very labor intensive business. We sampled a variety of regional Maine oysters and appreciated the variations in flavor. Hats off to the Glidden Oyster Farm team!

My boyfriend and I went on a tour of the oyster farm and it was super cool! You learn a lot about the history of oyster farming and the process. The farm also has shuck your own oysters, beer and wine.

I joined the tour on Monday. So glad I did that. It was very informative and fun. Shucking my own oysters was exciting and awesome experience. They always make sure we get it (safely) after a (few) lesson(s). I truly enjoyed each of delicious 33 oysters with a can of lovely dry sparkling rose, and everything here. Everyone was so kind and friendly (both professional staffs and customers). They all made my birthday trip meaningful and I feel so blessed. A lady with a pink top was so kind to ask me if I would like her to take a picture (since I was traveling by myself. I have my full of my picture, not just a selfie, finally!). The other 2 couples that I met prior the tour started were also wonderful. I ended up staying longer than I was planning for this stop "worth every second". I finally made with to shuck my own oysters at the end -- thanks to everyone! It was so relaxing at the outdoor area where we learned how to shuck oysters using their equipment and towel. I appreciate the outdoor cleaning station where we can empty our shells, trash, and washing our hands. Highly recommend for a tour and a wonderful experience/lesson shucking your own oysters with great conversations.

Visited on a rainy day, so couldn’t take the tour, but got to try some absolutely fantastic oysters! We loved our experience on the back patio and had so much fun learning to shuck our own oysters. Highly recommend coming for some really tasty oysters, at a reasonable price!

I went there this past summer and the man that was working in the oyster shop gave me an overview of the farm, oysters, and operation. I was then allowed to take a self guided tour. The farm is beautiful! He might have told me that if he wasnt alone he would have showed me around but i honestly dont remember. And the oysters are to die for! You have to shuck them yourself but it's totally worth it.
