We welcome the

bounty of the ocean

Huertos Marinos takes advantage of the Gulf of Nicoya's rich waters to cultivate oysters of unparalleled quality.


Oysters are grown in a habitat that features the essence and wholeness of the sea, resulting in a unique flavor profile that captures the very soul of the ocean on your palate.

Safe consumption,

exquisite flavor

Oysters undergo a rigorous purification, called "depuración." With the support of the National University of Costa Rica (UNA), each oyster is submerged for 24 hours in purified seawater, ensuring that any impurities are removed from the oysters' intestines for safe consumption.

​

Customer well-being is our priority, and each exquisite bite reflects our commitment to excellence.

Commitment with the community

Nestled in the town of Costa de Pájaros, the farm goes beyond just the art of oyster cultivation. Huertos Marinos is committed to its social responsibility, offering conscious support to the valuable coastal community.


By providing employment opportunities, you not only generate support, but also build prosperity for the entire community. Through this commitment, a bridge is built towards a more resilient and vibrant future for the area.

Embarking on

extraordinary flavors

Travel beyond the ordinary as you savor Costa Rica's most exquisite oysters: a symphony of sun, sea, sand and heartfelt dedication in each extraordinary bite.


From selecting the strongest oyster seeds, to growing them in nutrient-rich waters, our commitment to excellence resonates at every stage. They are flavors that redefine tradition and elevate the gastronomic experience to unimaginable heights.

The Oyster

Type of oyster farmed

On our farm we grow the exquisite Pacific Oyster, also known as the Japanese Oyster.

​

This species is found throughout the Pacific coast, where it is mostly cultivated on the coasts of colder waters such as those of Chile, the United States or Canada. In these countries, oysters grow bigger due to the cold water, however they take longer to do so since there is less food (phytoplankton) than in the waters of the tropics.
