Welcome To Our Website
Set amid the majestic natural beauty of north Queensland’s coastal rainforest, Daintree Saltwater Barramundi Farm has been producing Australia’s finest hand-reared Barramundi for over a decade. Barramundi, or Lates calcarifer, is one of the world’s premiere fine-dining fish, and its exquisite taste and delicate texture make it the perfect choice for healthy, enticing dishes in a wide variety of styles and cuisines. Coupled with its nutritional value, this has made Barramundi a first-choice item on the menus of restaurants throughout Australia.
Daintree Saltwater Barramundi Farm uses only the best salt water sourced from the Daintree River. Our Barramundi are then allowed to grow naturally, under free-range conditions, in large earthen ponds that reproduce their natural habitat. This ensures the fish matures without unnecessary stress, and guarantees all those qualities that make Barramundi so famous: firm, succulent flesh, and a delicate combination of flavours and aromas.
Carefully handled, Barramundi transports remarkably well. So wherever possible, we ship our fish to you chilled, not frozen, in order to preserve its texture and flavours. For restaurants keen to give their clientele a distinctively Australian dining experience, nothing surpasses Daintree Saltwater Barramundi.
Our ability to produce the finest hand-reared Barramundi for Australia’s best restaurants has earned us a number of prestigious awards, and inquiries from as far afield as Russia and the United Arab Emirates. In the years ahead, we hope to expand our operations internationally, in response to growing demand for Australia’s most famous fine-dining fish. We welcome inquiries from interested distributors in Europe, Asia and the United States.
