Hooker 1 Fishing Charters

Welcome to Hooker 1 Fishing Charters, the premier fishing charter and whale watching tour agency in Main Beach, Gold Coast. With over 30 years of experience, Captain Nigel and his crew have the local knowledge and expertise to ensure that your fishing or whale watching experience is a success.

Whether you're looking for deep sea fishing, reef fishing, or game fishing, we have the perfect trip for you. The Gold Coast offshore waters are home to a wide variety of fish species all year round, from Snapper and Pearl Perch to Marlin and Tuna. Our crew will guide you to the best fishing spots and provide you with all the necessary equipment and bait for a successful fishing trip.

For those looking for a more private experience, we offer private charters that are perfect for corporate events, parties, or just a day of cruising on the Broadwater. Our shared charters are a great way to meet fellow fishing enthusiasts and lower the cost of your charter boat trip.

If you're looking for a thrilling experience, join us for our whale watching tours. Get up close and personal with migrating Humpback Whales and witness their majestic beauty firsthand.

Situated on the beautiful Gold Coast, Hooker 1 Fishing Charters is dedicated to providing fishing enthusiasts with the ultimate fishing adventure. We offer 5-hour, 7-hour, and 9-hour reef and game fishing charters, with all bait, tackle, light snacks, and cold bottled water provided. You can keep what you catch, and our crew will clean and bag your fish for your convenience.

When you book with us, all you need to bring is your camera, sun tan lotion, sunglasses, and a hat. Lunch is not provided, so we recommend bringing your own on our longer charters. Alcohol is allowed on board, but smoking and vaping are not permitted.

We understand that things come up, so we have a flexible refund policy. Please arrive on time for departure to ensure that we can maximise your time on the water.
