Once you have chosen your seafood, the best way to ensure it stays as fresh as possible for your trip home is to pack it into an esky or cooler bag with ice.

When stored correctly in an airtight container at 5°C or below, fresh seafood should be used within 2 to 3 days. If you need to freeze seafood, ensure your freezer bag has as little air as possible and freeze at -15°C or below.
To thaw frozen seafood gradually, place it in the refrigerator overnight. If you need to thaw seafood quickly, use the defrost setting on your microwave and stop the cycle when the seafood is still icy but pliable.
Our retail staff can ice your fresh fish, this is a good idea if it is during the summer months or if you are travelling a long distance.
The best way to transport frozen fish is to wrap with paper and store in an insulated cooler bag.
Our seafood is 90% local and only 10% frozen produce is imported.
