Fishing Charters
Come fishing with us in the scenic splendour of Akaroa.
- Coastal fishing 3.5 hours, half day
- Coastal fishing 7 hours, full day
- Harbour fishing 2.5 hours
The combination of time spent on the water along with stunning scenery and wildlife make for a memorable experience.
Fishing in Akaroa is all year round. The best catching times in summer are early morning or twilight, while in winter it is throughout the day.
Summer weather traditionally means that seldom are there two consecutive days when you are unable to get out, so we advise you to stay over to maximise your potential fishing time.

During the winter, the weather can be more dramatic, but often provides some of the best fishing weather and catches.
