Geraldton, Western Australia, offers world-class fishing adventures along its stunning Coral Coast, renowned for its abundant marine life and diverse angling opportunities. This premier destination attracts enthusiasts targeting iconic species like Pink Snapper, Dhufish, and the prized Western Rock Lobster, with charters accessing the pristine Abrolhos Islands—a marine paradise featuring historic shipwrecks and thriving ecosystems.

Experienced local skippers navigate these biodiverse waters, ensuring sustainable practices and compliance with strict regulations—including size limits and seasonal closures—to protect fisheries. From family-friendly inshore trips to multi-day offshore expeditions featuring catch-and-cook experiences with freshly caught lobster, Geraldton delivers unforgettable fishing adventures tailored to all skill levels.
