1. Harvesting Mussels in Killary Harbour
An experience to be ticked off your bucket list, learning to harvest mussels is a truly eye-opening experience. Killary is the only Fjord in Ireland and an ideal location for growing mussels thanks to the unique combination of fresh and seawater which gives the Killary mussel a distinctive sweet flavour. It is here on the Fjord that Killary Fjord Shellfish grow, harvest, grade, depurate and debyss the mussels in their dispatch centre for local restaurants and wholesalers in the West of Ireland. They will also bring you on a farm tour and show you how it’s all done! For more information check out: https://killaryfjordshellfish.com/
