PETUNA - Petuna is Tasmania’s largest multi-species seafood supplier, operating from the pristine Southern Ocean and in one of the world’s finest coastal environments. Macquarie Harbour – the Harbour features a layer of tannin-stained fresh water over sea water and, along with strong currents, creates the best aquaculture farming conditions in the world. The brownish tannin, which is characteristic of Tasmania’s wild rivers, provides natural shelter for Ocean Trout and Atlantic Salmon, and helps them achieve a good growth cycle throughout the year.
