About 12 Diver Caught Scallops
Scallops are one of the most abundant and gorgeous seafoods of the South West and there is no more sustainable way to fish them than by diving.
Diving for scallops isn’t easy work but doing it this way means the diver plucks only the adult scallops from the seabed, leaving the smaller ones in the water, and completely eliminating bycatch.
These medium hand dived scallops are fully cleaned and come in packs of 12. For a simple but delicious dish, fry them briefly in a hot pan and melt over a spoonful of our Rockfish garlic butter.

With no more fresh fish markets now until after the bank holiday, the work doesn’t stop here in Brixham. The fleet will continue to fish through the weekend and we’ll be keeping a close eye on the landings as the boats come and go from the harbour.
Our buyers will be watching the market carefully, ready to step in and select the very best fish as it appears. It’s one of the great rhythms of the quay, and something we never take for granted.
The first fresh market will be back on Wednesday 8th, with all orders placed between now and then delivered that day. We look forward to bringing you another round of exceptional seafood, straight from the boats to your kitchen.
Carpe piscem!
