From the wind-swept shores of the Southern Coastline, we hand-harvest the freshest periwinkles for you.

Tumbling waves, alive with nutrients and oxygenation. Ribbons of seaweed, and rugged outcrops – all home to our prized mollusc.

Our experienced divers harvest Southern Australian Periwinkles by hand, where they find the gastropod on rocky reefs at depths to 20m from the clear, pristine waters of the Southern Ocean. Sustainable fishing in South Australia is closely managed by SA Fisheries.

Immerse yourself in the culinary possibilities and flavour profile, unique to the periwinkle’s characteristics.
Distinctive in appearance with bands of contrasting colours, the periwinkle is protected with a unique, pure white, circular shield, called an operculum.
