Fishing Expedition For Four – Half Day (Afternoon)

What is the Experience?

Gather a group of four mates and head off for a fishing trip on Melbourne's magnificent Port Phillip Bay. You and your friends will have the opportunity to hook a snapper, giant flathead, squid, elephant fish or shark. They are all just a nibble away! You'll also enjoy a sausage sizzle on board!

Your fishing vessel will be located an easy five minute walk from St Kilda. Upon arrival you will be given a full safety and security brief prior to the vessel leaving port.

Our boats have marine toilet facilities, a large customer ice box, sound system, plus fish-finding and GPS equipment to make your fishing day more successful. Your skipper takes real pride in his extraordinary knowledge and passion for fishing, life at sea and the environment.

Your trip will include:

  • A half day fishing charter on Port Phillip Bay, leaving from St Kilda Pier
  • Easy-to-use spinning reels and equipment
  • A sausage sizzle lunch
  • Your catch cleaned and bagged, ready for you to take home
  • Fully licensed or BYO alcohol
