Can’t ask for a better fishing trip or crew

We had the best time on this boat. The crew was very friendly and efficient, kept everything super clean and was quick to help when needed. We highly recommend fishing trips with Norseman Reef Fishing.

Just 60km north of Cairns and less than an hours drive away, is the chic little seaside town of Port Douglas that attracts many visitors in its own right, but for many, Port Douglas is considered one of the best bases from which to access the fantastic fishing opportunities afforded by the world-famous Great Barrier Reef.

The longest established and most highly regarded private fishing charter in Port Douglas is MV Norseman, with nearly a quarter of a century of fishing the rich waters of the region, and whether you are an individual, family group or on a corporate excursion looking for the best fishing charter in Port Douglas, here at Norseman we will bring all of our passion and experience to providing you with a day full of wonderful memories.

Our 60’ boat provides all the facilities and amenities to ensure that when you book your custom fishing charter in Port Douglas with us, you not only have the very best chance of getting amongst some of the region’s most iconic fish, such as Giant Trevally, Spanish Mackerel, Coral Trout, Cod, Mangrove Jack and even Tuna and Wahoo but you will do so in comfort and safety. Two toilets, two showers, an air-conditioned saloon with a licensed bar and plenty of shaded areas will help you relax, but when it comes to the actual fishing, there is plenty of space and even a sport fishing platform for use when needed. Furthermore, the Norseman is a fast, stable boat that will transport you to the favourite spots known to the crew in short time, allowing more minutes to be spent fishing rather that travelling.

When you choose Norseman for your deep sea fishing, reef fishing and sport fishing from Port Douglas you will benefit from a crew whose enthusiasm for fishing is infectious, and their experience and knowledge of the local waters are second to none. You may be brand new to fishing, reliant on plenty of guidance, or an experienced angler with all of your own tackle and equipment, but in either case you will receive the full attention of the crew to ensure you have a fabulous day.

Norseman is available for either full day Great Barrier Reef fishing charters or half day fishing charters from Port Douglas, but whatever the duration of your trip you will be provided with all the requisite top-quality tackle – specifically chosen for the job at hand, plus all the bait required; but when you book your full day fishing charters with us, lunch and tea will also be provided – and you can purchase ice cold drinks from our well stocked bar. And of course, you can take your catch home for your supper, and our crew will be happy to clean and bag up your catch for you to take ashore at the end of the day.
