Realt na Mara Shellfish

The proprietors of Realt na Mara Shellfish are fourth generation fishermen and women living and working in the coastal village of Cromane. This family-run business specialises in supplying fresh purified Irish mussels and oysters to customers in Ireland and overseas. Participants in the aquaculture industry, they are proud to be making a contribution to an important and vital aspect of Cromane’s heritage.

Their shellfish are carefully nurtured in the natural surroundings of Castlemaine Harbour in unspoiled Atlantic waters. These provide sea conditions which are ideal for growing mussels and oysters. Employing strict quality control when harvesting and purifying the shellfish ensures a high quality product is delivered fresh to all their customers.
