Our all-inclusive Full Day Shared Reef Fishing Charter is the ultimate way to experience the pristine waters of the Great Barrier Reef. Departing from Cairns, this action-packed day takes you offshore in search of iconic reef species including Coral Trout, Red Emperor, Large-Mouth Nannygai and Spanish Mackerel, plus many more.
A shared reef fishing charter is the perfect option if you want to get out on the water without organising a large group. You’ll join a friendly mix of guests – from families and first-time anglers to experienced fishermen and curious travellers – making it a relaxed, social and unforgettable day on the reef.
As a dedicated deep sea fishing charter in Cairns, we typically fish depths of 30–60 metres, exploring productive reef systems within a 50km radius of Cairns. Expect hard-fighting reef fish, with catches commonly reaching 10kg or more – so be ready to hold on!
Take your bagged fish at the end of the day, to some of the local restaurants at the marina, who will prep ands cook your fish!

EXCELLENT Based on 422 reviews Posted on Anousack ThepphommaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I wasn’t sure what to do in Cairns, so I visited their office. Eleanor at the counter was very helpful and gave me great advice on which tours suited me. I booked two tours—Kuranda went smoothly and I had an amazing time. The Fitzroy Island tour was cancelled due to technical issues, but Kirk (who seemed like a manager) called me, resolved everything quickly, and arranged a similar tour for me instead. Overall, I had a great experience and really enjoyed my time in Cairns. If you’re visiting, definitely stop by their office—you won’t regret it.Posted on Sven RudolphTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were fortunate enough to be advised by Bailey. He helped us choose the best day in terms of weather and calmly described and recommended various snorkelling tours to us. The tour we ended up booking was fantastic, as was the weather. For this reason, we were very happy with the advice and would definitely come back again.Posted on G EATrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Had a great time out in the Great Barrier Reef, glad to be able to check it off our bucket list!Posted on Tiffany TranNguyenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Great Service, handsome ladPosted on Shannon El HanbliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family and I were visiting Cairns for a week only and wanted to have a memorable visit of the Great Barrier Reef. We were welcomed by Eleonore Fabre - she gave us outstanding service. She recommended the Moore Reef plan and we could not have had a better day. My kids (and I 🤭) loved the slide that led right into the ocean off the pontoon. Would highly recommend to stop by and see Éléonore at the Cairns branch!Posted on Mack BurgessTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
