Departures
Cooktown is the location where all our trips depart.
Extended Overnight trips can be arranged to reefs off Princess Charlotte Bay leaving Cooktown in the afternoon and steam overnight for fishing the next day. Most enjoy 5 to 7 days off Cooktown fishing the local reefs which can have you fishing within 2 hours out of port. 1and 2 day trips can also be catered for.
Clients either drive up from Cairns or choose to fly from Cairns to Cooktown.
Fishing is undertaken during the complete trip days and departure occurs after fishing on the last day has ceased.

Rods and Reels are not included however, these can be hired for a small fee if you don't have your own
