Words From Our Valued Customers
A Story Forged by the Tides
Ocean's Bounty wasn't born in a boardroom; it was conceived on the salty, windswept docks of a small fishing village. Our founder, a third-generation fisherman, saw a growing disconnect between the people who loved seafood and the pristine sources it came from. The market was flooded with frozen, mass-distributed products that had lost their connection to the sea, their flavor dulled by time and long supply chains. He envisioned something different: a service that would bridge that gap, delivering the unparalleled quality of a fisherman's personal catch directly to homes across the country. We started small, with a single boat and a handful of local customers who shared our passion for genuine freshness.
Our philosophy is simple: respect the ocean, honor the catch, and serve the customer. We've built our entire operation around this creed. We don't just sell seafood; we curate an experience. This means forging deep, personal relationships with small-scale, independent fisheries who share our unwavering commitment to sustainable and ethical practices. These are not faceless suppliers; they are our partners. We know their names, their families, their boats, and their fishing grounds. This intimate connection allows us to guarantee not only the quality and freshness of our products but also their traceability and responsible origins. Every fillet of halibut, every oyster, every pound of shrimp comes with a story of a healthy ocean and a community that depends on it. We believe you can taste this integrity in every single bite. Our growth has been fueled not by aggressive marketing, but by the chorus of satisfied customers who have experienced this difference firsthand. Today, we may serve thousands, but that original, dockside promise of quality remains the anchor of our brand. We are fishermen at heart, and our greatest pride is sharing the ocean's true bounty with you.
The Ocean's Bounty Difference
Peak Freshness Guarantee
Our "catch-to-kitchen" timeline is the shortest in the industry. By eliminating middlemen and long-term storage, we ensure the seafood you receive retains its natural moisture, firm texture, and delicate flavor. It's the closest you can get to fishing it yourself.
Unwavering Quality Control
Every single item is hand-inspected by our quality experts at the source. We check for clarity of eyes, vibrant color, and firmness of flesh. Anything that doesn't meet our exacting standards is rejected. We are uncompromising because you deserve the best.
Verifiable Sustainability
We provide full traceability for our products. We partner exclusively with fisheries that are certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) or rated "Best Choice" by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch program. We're investing in the future of our oceans.

There is a world of difference between standard grocery store seafood and what we deliver. The flavor is cleaner, sweeter, and more nuanced. The texture is firm and succulent, never mealy or watery.

It's the secret ingredient that top chefs have known for years: freshness is everything.

Our Pledge to a Healthy Ocean
At Ocean's Bounty, sustainability isn't a marketing buzzword; it is the fundamental principle upon which our entire business is built. We recognize that we are stewards of a precious and finite resource. The health of our oceans is directly linked to the health of our planet and the future of our food supply. Therefore, we have woven responsible practices into every single step of our supply chain, ensuring that our love for seafood contributes to, rather than detracts from, the vitality of marine ecosystems. Our commitment is threefold: responsible sourcing, minimal environmental impact, and active support for ocean conservation.
Responsible Sourcing: We refuse to work with large-scale industrial trawlers that engage in destructive practices like bottom trawling. Instead, we have cultivated a network of small, community-based fisheries that use sustainable, low-impact fishing methods such as hook-and-line, pot-and-trap, and responsible diving. These methods significantly reduce bycatch (the unintentional capture of non-target species) and minimize damage to sensitive marine habitats like coral reefs and seagrass beds. We rigorously vet every partner to ensure they adhere to strict quotas and fishing seasons, allowing fish populations to remain healthy and resilient for generations to come. We believe in quality over quantity, and our sourcing reflects this core value.
Minimal Environmental Impact: Our responsibility extends beyond the water. We have invested heavily in creating a low-impact operational footprint. Our packaging is a testament to this. The boxes are made from recycled materials, and all insulation is plant-based and fully compostable. Our gel packs are non-toxic and reusable. We've optimized our delivery routes to reduce carbon emissions, consolidating shipments and using courier partners with their own green initiatives. We are constantly innovating and searching for new ways to reduce waste and conserve resources, from water usage in our packing facilities to the energy efficiency of our offices.
Active Conservation Support: We believe in giving back to the source of our livelihood. That's why Ocean's Bounty proudly donates 2% of all profits to non-profit organizations dedicated to marine conservation, ocean cleanup projects, and sustainable aquaculture research. By choosing us, our customers become active participants in this vital work. You are not just purchasing seafood; you are casting a vote for a healthier ocean and supporting the critical efforts of scientists, activists, and educators who are on the front lines of protecting our planet's most vital ecosystem. This is our promise: to deliver the ocean's finest treasures while ensuring those treasures exist for all the tomorrows to come.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you guarantee freshness during shipping?
This is our top priority and the cornerstone of our business. We use a multi-layered approach. First, your seafood is vacuum-sealed moments after being prepared, which removes oxygen and locks in freshness. Second, we use proprietary insulated boxes made from materials with a very high thermal resistance. Third, we pack the box with a precise number of commercial-grade, non-toxic gel packs, calculated based on your location and the current weather forecast. This creates a stable, chilled environment (around 33-38°F or 0.5-3°C) that keeps the seafood in a state of pristine preservation without freezing it. Finally, we use expedited shipping to ensure transit time is minimal, typically 24-48 hours. The result is seafood that arrives at your door as fresh as the moment it left our facility.
Is your seafood wild-caught or farm-raised?
We offer both, and we are transparent about the origin of every single product. The majority of our fish, like salmon, cod, and halibut, is wild-caught from sustainable, well-managed fisheries. We believe wild fish offer a superior flavor profile. However, for certain species like mussels, oysters, and some varieties of shrimp, responsible aquaculture (farming) is the most sustainable and environmentally friendly option. When we do offer farmed products, we only partner with farms that hold the highest certifications, such as the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC), ensuring they operate with minimal environmental impact, clean water, and healthy feed practices. You will find the origin (wild-caught or responsibly farmed) clearly listed on each product page.
What if I'm not home when my delivery arrives?
No problem at all! Our packaging is designed to maintain its chilled temperature for several hours after delivery. We ship all our orders with "Shipper Release," which means the courier is authorized to leave the package at your doorstep, porch, or with your building's concierge without requiring a signature. This ensures you don't have to wait around all day. The insulated box will protect your seafood perfectly until you can retrieve it later in the evening. You'll also receive tracking information with a delivery window, so you'll have a good idea of when it will arrive.
Can I set up a recurring subscription?
Absolutely! We offer a highly flexible subscription service called the "Captain's Club." You can customize your box with your favorite items or choose one of our curated boxes. You can set your delivery frequency to weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. The best part is the flexibility – you can easily pause your subscription, skip a delivery, or swap items before each shipment via your online account dashboard. Subscribers also get exclusive perks like a permanent 10% discount, first access to rare seasonal catches, and special bonus items in their boxes. It's the easiest way to ensure you always have incredible, healthy seafood on hand.
