Good to know

This suits anyone wanting a full day combining sightseeing, fishing and dining without needing prior fishing experience. The 8-hour duration is fairly full-on, with transitions between venues. The offshore charter involves being on a boat for 2.5 hours—consider whether you're comfortable with ocean conditions and potential seasickness. Infants can come (prams and specialist seats available), though the pace and noise of fishing may not suit very young children. All fitness levels are welcome. Additional drinks beyond those included are at your own cost. The experience includes private transport, guided tour, fishing, and a two-course meal, but any extra beverages, tips or incidentals aren't covered.
