We are extremely proud to call the idyllic seaside town of Bowen in North Queensland our home. It is this location that sets us apart from other farms. Situated in the northern Whitsunday region overlooking beautiful tropical islands and coral reef, we have a constant supply of clean, oceanic sea water.
We have an intake pumping station located on sandy beach rather than tidal estuary. And we are part of the dry tropics, Queensland's driest coastal region. Beach pumping in this location ensures salt water is available all year with no effect from the tropical rainfall. We have consistently high quality, exceptionally clean salt water that results in consistently great tasting, healthy fish naturally - with a beautiful, sweet, saltwater flavour comparable to wild caught barramundi. And so they should be - they are grown in oceanic water flowing through our concrete raceways constantly. All day and all night.
Coral Coast Barramundi is a fully integrated farm with our own breeding stock hatchery and nursery rearing facility, growout raceways and HACCP approved processing facility. Self-sufficient with control over every stage of production to ensure the best quality and best tasting product possible.
