So when you book with us, you can be sure you’re choosing a genuinely fantastic experience, and you’re also supporting the local economy.
Apollo Bay Fishing Charters first cast our line in 2020
Dan has been fishing competitively
and giving his mates and colleagues local tours for as long as he can remember.
He reckons in that time he has probably caught thousands of fish, delivered hundreds of fresh dinners and seen more than his fair share of spectacular sunsets - always with a beer in hand and great people on deck.
Reflecting on his love of sharing the local coast and wildlife,
He decided to offer that same genuine experience of Apollo Bay to local and international guests.
As it turns out, just about everyone who has set sail with Dan since then has also landed up feeling like a mate by the end of the day.
