“What is the difference between Rock Lobsters and Crayfish?”
Technically, Rock Lobsters are salt-water fish and Crayfish are fresh-water fish.
It’s just a Tassie thing to call them Crays - but rest assured they are Rock Lobsters.

Whether you call them Rock Lobsters or Crays, the important thing is savoring the delectable flavors they bring to your plate!

Scientific Name: Jasus edwardsii​

Crayfish, crayfish, crayfish… Everyone loves Crays. It's undeniable. They are the staple of Tasmanian Christmas lunch and dinner, and a feature of barbeques all summer long. We only stock locally caught, East and West Coast Tasmanian Crays. 
To ensure the best possible eating experience, Kyeema keeps their Crays alive in holding tanks until they are ready to be cooked. Choose from a freshly cooked or live Crayfish when you purchase from Kyeema.

Also known as Crayfish, Lobster, Southern Rock Lobster & Eastern Rock Lobster, they are caught on all coasts of Tasmania, in a depth of approximately 160m. The flesh is very firm when cooked, white, succulent and sweet. They’re good for grilling, baking, steaming/poaching, stir-fry & boiling.
Cray season is closed for six weeks each year, beginning at the end of September.
