Fishing Charters in the Bay of Islands

 

Join us for a fantastic day out on the  magnificent waters of the Bay of Islands with a fishing charter from Paihia, Russell or Waitangi.

We offer shared and private snapper and kingfish fishing charters but we can also tailor a private charter to your needs.  Want to cruise the Bay, stop at Urupukapuka and then have an afternoon fish?  No problem!

Our boat is perfect for groups with plenty of room for up to 20 people.  Celebrations, family fishing trips, team building groups, school groups, corporate days … talk to us about the options.
