Port Douglas: Reef & Estuary Sportfishing Charters

Experience the thrill of sportfishing on the Great Barrier Reef with a local guide. Enjoy a personalized experience with a maximum of 6 guests per tour.
Meet your guide at the Public Jetty in Port Douglas and step aboard one of our specialised fishing vessels—Atlas, a 7m Ocean Blue powered by twin 150hp Suzukis, or Reel Therapy, a 6.5m Stabicraft Frontier with a 150hp Yamaha. With a maximum of 5 guests, you’ll enjoy a personalised and spacious experience, perfect for anglers of all levels.

Choose a half-day charter to explore inshore reefs and estuaries, where you can target a variety of species and even spot local wildlife like crocodiles and birds. If you’re keen to head out to the outer Great Barrier Reef or chase powerful Giant Trevally (GT), we recommend the full-day charter to allow enough time for travel and fishing.

Afternoon half-day: 12:30 pm – 4:30 pm (arrive by 12:20 pm)
