Explore the turquoise waters out of Darwin Top End by joining Spring Tide Safaris on your newest adventure! Skipper Micky Qaiser has spent his whole life fishing in the area, so he'll make sure you have a productive trip and an amazing time.
Hop aboard his 21' aluminum boat that was built specifically for catching Barramundi in Darwin. It can accommodate up to 5 guests, so it's great for some fun with a few friends. The boat is equipped with the latest electronics in the form of a GPS, a fishfinder and a VHF radio, as well as an EPIRB.
The crew will provide fly fishing equipment, rods, reels, tackle, live and artificial baits, and a fishing license. They'll clean and fillet your catch so that you can take it home and prepare a delicious meal, or just fill the freezer.
You will fish in the most awe-inspiring remote locations in the Northern Territory with plenty of shallow waters rich with a variety of fish. Depending on the season, you will be able to target Coral Trout, Jewfish, Barramundi, Queenfish, Salmon, Snapper, Mackerel, Giant Trevally, and Bluefin and Longtail Tuna.
Kids are welcome on board, so feel free to turn this into a memorable family adventure you'll always cherish. You'll have drinks, snacks, and lunch on your trip, so all you need to bring is your sense of humor and adventure!
Join Spring Tide Safaris and have an unforgettable fishing adventure in the beautiful deep waters off the coast of Darwin!

Peter SmithRepeat angler3.7VerifiedFull day trip
Full Day Trip on May 11, 2019 • 2 adultsMicky Warner me the weather was not favouring us but I chose to proceed anyway as I had a limited window. It was a bit rough and way too windy but Mucky was great, his boat was well set up and he showed me some great wildlife we just didn’t get any fish. Would still recommend it and hopefully will be back to have another go when I have better flexibility
