12 places to slurp buck-a-shuck oysters on the South Shore
Eating seafood next to the sea is something that most people think of doing during the summer when the sun is out and the weather is hot. But surprisingly to this Texan, oyster season is in full swing.
From October to February or March is the prime time for fresh local oysters. As the water gets colder, it makes a perfect environment for harvesting oysters.
Plenty of South Shore restaurants are selling oysters. Here is a list of buck-a-shuck restaurants in the area.
