Oysters, Oysters, Oysters

The nutrient-rich Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint river system initiates the complex network of food chains in our bay. The environmental conditions present make it the perfect feeding, breeding and nursery ground for an abundance of our world famous seafood. First and foremost are Apalachicola Bay oysters. Florida's gulf coast oyster industry is based on the highly preferred "American" or "Eastern" oyster, also known by its scientific name Crassostrea virginica. This species is the principle oyster harvested commercially along the Gulf of Mexico. Second, but equally important, is the shrimping industry.
