About This Tour
We offer the most unique marine adventure in Newfoundland. You will get to catch and keep your own cod fish so please bring a cooler to take your cod fillet back with you. Life is short, let's enjoy the experience on the mighty North Atlantic. There is nothing better than a day on the North Atlantic chasing the famous cod which has defined our province for over 500 years. For the more adventurous we also offer Shark Fishing Charters (Blue Shark, Porbeagle, Mako and Great White) We offer custom tour packages for those looking to enjoy the taste of freshly cooked cod right off the boat. We can pan fry your catch as soon as we clean your fish while you enjoy a cold beverage and relax after a fantastic day on the water. Please inquire for details and availability.
Final price may vary. Check availability for exact pricing.
