Navarre – Artisanal fishing and farming reinvented

From the sea to your plate, all the treasures of the ocean Founded in 2013 in Gouville-sur-Mer by Laetitia and Alexandre Navarre, the Navarre maritime domain flourishes opposite the Channel Islands. Combining oyster farming tradition, innovation and respect for the product, the establishment has become a European benchmark for premium live seafood.

Tradition in motion

Between solidarity, creativity and audacity, an exemplary journey

The Navarre adventure began in 2013 with a business focused on blue lobster and Normandy oysters. The range was then expanded to include scallops and edible crabs, using MSC-certified sustainable fishing practices. Today, the Navarre maritime workshop stands out for its exemplary agility and strong capacity for innovation.

The mark of strong tides

A Normandy coastline shaped by the tides and the Gulf Stream

Our products are born in the heart of Europe’s most powerful waters. They benefit from waters rich in phytoplankton and nutrients. A natural alchemy that sculpts an iconic marine collection:

  • The oysters of Navarre: La Gamèn’, la Fine de Normandie, l’Antilope 1858, l’Henri IV, genuine iodised vintages.
  • The lobster blue, true king of the seas of Normandy, iconic symbol of nobility and of power.
  • Shellfish and crustaceans: scallops, crabs, lobsters, spider crabs, our splinters of waves.
