Wild Islands Lobster

We fish lobster in the Wild Islands, located on the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia, Canada. Our quality surpasses all other Canadian brands for flavour due to the specific time it is harvested and of course, the pristine ocean waters of the Wild Islands Archipelago. Under strict environmental regulations, we use hand built wooden traps to harvest the worlds best tasting seafood.

No where else will you find a more succulent and sustainable seafood. Harvested with the least impact possible.

In the Wild Islands, we harvest lobster in the 'Flavour Zone' at the end of a long cold growth cycle, before the lobster starts using energy stored in its flesh to re-start its annual moult cycle.

Pure Canadian Lobster

The lobster you are eating grew up slowly in the cold salty waters of the wild island archipelago on Nova Scotia’s eastern shore. Chilled by the North Atlantic current, Nova Scotia’s eastern shore is home to some of the coldest year-round ocean temperatures in the maritime provinces.

Your lobster is over 10 years old and has already had a chance to reproduce before it was harvested. It fed itself on a totally fresh, wild, live diet of clams, crabs, urchins, snails, scallops, mussels, juvenile fish, and even shrimp.

After a long winter of eating and growing to fill its shell with the most royal of lobster meat , it was harvested in a zero impact, hand built wooden lobster trap or creel.
