In 2024, Oyster Bay Harbor was designated as ‘Best Harbor’ winner for the Mid-Atlantic region by the US Harbors organization!
Home to former U.S. President Teddy Roosevelt, Oyster Bay is the only source of traditionally farmed oysters from Long Island providing up to 90% of all the oysters harvested in New York State!
