Tailored Fishing Charters in the Bay of Islands
Booking a private charter means the day is crafted entirely around you and your group, with no need to share the experience with strangers. From flexible schedules to tailored techniques, the trip is shaped to suit your preferences. With premium tackle, bait, and electronic fish-finding gear included, you’re set up for success.
The Bay of Islands offers more than just fishing action; it’s a natural spectacle with seabirds wheeling overhead, dolphins playing nearby, and stunning island vistas all around. Between strikes, you can simply take in the tranquillity of being offshore, far from the bustle of shore life. And at the end of the day, nothing beats enjoying a fresh hapuka dinner knowing it was your catch that made it possible.
