Fishing

Experience a fishing paradise off the coast of Te Arai amongst some of New Zealand’s most picturesque islands and renowned fishing grounds. With a diverse and abundant fishery frequented by large marlin, kingfish, tuna, snapper, and everything in-between, there’s a variety of fishing experiences on offer, including live baiting, trolling and lure fishing.

Fishing is great year-round for the two most commonly targeted species, snapper and kingfish. Our charter operators support sustainable fishing practices and most importantly, they have the local knowledge to put you onto the fish for a great day out. For an example of the type of fishing on offer, make sure to watch our friend, and local guide, Tony Orton fishing the stunning Mokohinau Islands below with his family.
