Day trips, weekend escapes, and full live-aboard expeditions — all designed around one thing: putting you on the best fishing available.
🎣 Day Adventure
Perfect for time-conscious anglers who want a taste of premium guided fishing without a multi-day commitment. Six to eight hours on the water with an expert guide, targeting local species at proven spots.
🌅 Weekend Escape
Two full days of intensive fishing with comfortable overnight accommodation. Target different spots on consecutive days — covering more ground and species than a single day allows, with an evening campfire debrief between sessions.
⚓ Live-Aboard
The definitive Australian offshore fishing adventure. Multi-day expeditions targeting big game species — marlin, yellowfin tuna, coral trout, and red emperor — with onboard accommodation and chef-prepared meals between sessions.
Six of Australia's most productive fishing environments — each with its own species, seasons, and techniques. Cooee guides know them all.
Coral trout, red emperor, and Spanish mackerel in crystal-clear tropical waters. World Heritage reef fishing at its most extraordinary.
World-famous barramundi fishing in pristine Kakadu and Daly River systems — the trophy catch every serious Australian angler wants on their list.
Offshore game fishing for marlin and mahi-mahi, plus estuary light tackle for flathead and mangrove jack. Year-round options for all styles.
Southern bluefin tuna, Atlantic salmon, and wild trout in Tasmania's pristine and uncrowded waters. Cold-water fishing of extraordinary quality.
The marlin capital of the world — heavy tackle black marlin season September to December, plus inshore barramundi and reef fishing year-round.
Big game fishing including billfish, yellowfin tuna, and sailfish in WA's deep blue. Remote, pristine, and uncrowded for those seeking unspoiled waters.
Three decades of guiding Australian fishing tours — the accumulated knowledge of thousands of trips across every major fishery in the country.
Competitive all-inclusive pricing with no hidden costs. The price you book is the price you pay — equipment, guides, transport and meals all included.
Target species, preferred style, group size, duration — every tour can be tailored to match exactly what you're after. Corporate and group bookings welcome.
Premium hospitality from first enquiry to final handshake — the kind of guided experience where even a slow fishing day becomes a great story.
Absolutely incredible experience. Caught my first marlin with Cooee Tours — the guides were knowledgeable, patient, and made sure we had the trip of a lifetime. Already planning the barramundi trip for next year.
As a complete beginner I was nervous, but the Cooee team made me feel comfortable from the moment I stepped onto the boat. Caught more fish than I imagined possible and learned an enormous amount from the guide. Genuinely transformative experience.
The live-aboard experience was beyond expectations. Professional crew, the best food I've had on any fishing trip, and some of the finest offshore fishing I've experienced in 40 years of chasing fish across three continents. Extraordinary.
Not at all. Cooee fishing tours genuinely cater to all skill levels — from guests who have never held a fishing rod to seasoned anglers targeting specific trophy species. Our expert guides provide instruction, technique coaching, and assistance tailored to your exact experience level. Many of our most memorable tour stories involve complete beginners landing extraordinary fish.
All Cooee fishing tours include fishing equipment, bait, return transport, expert guide, and refreshments. Multi-day weekend and live-aboard packages include accommodation and all meals. Fishing licences are arranged on your behalf. There are no surprise costs on the day — the quoted price is the complete price.
Bring sunscreen, a broad-brim hat, polarised sunglasses (genuinely useful for spotting fish), comfortable non-slip footwear, and weather-appropriate clothing. We provide all fishing gear and equipment. For multi-day trips, a full packing list is sent with your booking confirmation.
Yes — within legal size and bag limits for each species and location. We practise sustainable fishing and encourage catch-and-release for trophy specimens, but table fish are absolutely yours to keep. Filleting and packaging services can be arranged so your catch is ready to cook when you get home.
Safety is our absolute priority. If conditions are unsuitable to operate safely, we'll reschedule your tour to the next available date or offer a full refund. Our captains monitor weather forecasts constantly and make well-informed, conservative decisions. We never put guests on the water in unsafe conditions regardless of commercial pressure.
Absolutely — corporate fishing charters and group bookings are a significant part of what we do. We can accommodate groups from 4 to 40+ with custom itineraries, multi-vessel arrangements, on-water catering, and post-catch dining events. Call 0409 661 342 to discuss your group's requirements.
