Harvested to order | Shucked to order | Hand-packed

Every scallop is hand-harvested and shipped all on the same day — ensuring maximum "day boat" freshness and quality. You can expect your order to arrive within one day of harvest.

Select your quantity, choose your desired delivery date, and we do the rest. The day before your delivery date, we hand-harvest and shuck your scallops. Our team then packs your order in an insulated shipping box with cold packs and a temperature tracker.

When your order arrives, check the FreshTag™

We use Freshtag™ to monitor the temperature of your shipment while in transit. Review the Freshtag™ color when your order arrives.

Green or yellow indicates a fresh and safe shipment.

Red or orange indicates potential heat abuse.

If there are any issues, please take a picture and email us at info@verticalbaymaine.com

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right quantity for my needs?
On average, 18-20 individual shucked scallops make up a pound. A two-pound order can comfortably feed a group of 7-8 people. When in doubt, order up! You can freeze any fresh leftover raw scallops without sacrificing the amazing taste.

What's the best way to eat your scallops?
Vertical Bay scallops are as fresh as they come and can be enjoyed cooked or raw (just like sushi or sashimi). Visit our Recipes page for preparation inspiration.
