Suggested Itinerary

Day 1: Tuesday


Arrive into Darwin and spend some time getting supplies ready.  Head to the shops and stock up on drinks, snacks, water and make sure you have a good fishing shirt and hat!  Explore the downtown area and find a nice place for dinner, maybe use your voucher from Charlie’s of Darwin. Make it an early night so you are ready for a day of fishing.

Day 2: Wednesday


Your day will begin with a meet and greet at Dinah Beach Boat Ramp in Darwin at about 7am (tide dependent), followed by a safety briefing and an outline of the plan for the day.


After the introduction, you will travel to your first destination. You'll be served a light breakfast along the way. Lunch, snacks and cool drinks are provided, and you can bring your own drinks (within reason).


Depending on the day you will be done between 3:00-4:30 pm and welcome to take home any fish you catch. 

Enjoy the evening at your leisure- maybe grab a pizza at Last Super Pizzeria or grab a laksa at Chow.

Day 3: Thursday


The day is yours to explore and is the day to do your excursion if you selected jet skiing.  Head down to the waterfront and Stokes wharf for the afternoon and enjoy your whip around the harbour, a drink or two and lunch. 

If you chose the Darwin Harbour Cruises, book in for this evening and make it a waterfront day visiting the WW2 Tunnels and the Royal Flying Doctors Services before you get on board the cruise.

Day 4: Friday


Another day of fishing is ahead and today you will want to make sure you catch a few that you want to eat tonight.  Once you are done with your day on the water, you can go back to the hotel and freshen up and either head into town or book in at Oka in Parap where the chef will whip up your fresh catch (5 course meal using your fresh caught fish is $80 per person!  *Oka needs to be pre booked

Day 5: Saturday


Your fishing adventure has come to an end. Hopefully you don’t have to fly out too early - enjoy breakfast at the hotel and take advantage of the late checkout available.
