For 70 years, since 1954, the Galway International Oyster & Seafood Festival has celebrated a timeless, unchanging Irish tradition and treasure, and the ongoing pleasure given by our native oysters.

Natives. Flats. Native flats. Ostrea edulis – whatever you call our native oysters they are as much a part of the food fabric and history of Ireland as our butter. Fatty yet not fatty. Nutty without any nuts. A hint of citrus without any fruit. And that unequalled lingering sweet iodine flavour. There is nothing quite like the Irish native oyster.

The Galway International Oyster and Seafood Festival has launched a seafood trail, taking in 17 of the city’s leading seafood establishments, as part of this year’s festival, which takes place over the weekend.
