Our team at Wellington Seamarket has started doing contactless home deliveries for fresh fish and frozen seafood products.

If you would like to get some fresh fish for dinner tomorrow night you can order here.

Our fish comes in daily from fishermen around Wellington and collaborators around the country (such as Barnes Wild Oyster for Bluff Oysters).

Our goal is to get the fish prepared and delivered to your door within 24 hours of it hitting the deck!

We deliver Monday to Friday, and cover the bottom half of the North Island (Wellington to Palmerston North).
