'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''I love the sea and have always wanted to fulfill a childhood dream of owning my own boat! Now that I have, I want to share my adventures out at sea with other adventurers out there! Captain Max is the man behind Lion City Fishing Charters, and he's been exploring these waters as a charter captain since 2013. He grew up in this area, so you'll be treated to a truly local adventure when you join him for your trip! Capt. Max decided to become a charter captain after spending many years fishing with friends and family and realizing how much fun everyone was having. Hands down, his favorite part of the job is teaching newbies and experienced anglers alike how to fish these waters. He likes working with kids and novice anglers because he gets to teach them all about fishing techniques, strategies, and species'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

4 hours beginner course with Captain Heng
4 – Hours Beginners Course on June 22, 2023 • 2 adults
Amazing experience! Was able to click with the captain almost immediately upon meeting, and he was extremely patient in guiding me and my father on basic fishing techniques. He even shared some more advanced techniques with me on cleaning fish to keep them fresh and tasty for longer. Absolutely amazing time, and I highly recommend fishing trips with him. Thanks Cap, I’ll be back soon!

Whole Day Fishing Trip
Full Day Trip on May 2, 2022 • 4 adults
We chose to do the whole day fishing trip, and we had a blast! Trip was very well organized even before and during the trip. Details were double confirmed, and the response time was super fast as well. Our captain was a part timer for weekend, but he was still very friendly and had a very pleasant attitude. We loved the fact that we were able to bring our own food and drinks (they have plenty of ice to keep our drinks cold). Ice cold beer on boat tasted better for sure! The only thing we thought would have been better was the quality of the rods/lines. The line kept snapping, and the rod were so difficult to real... If you have your own, maybe it's better to bring that. But again, we still had a blast, and will definitely go back again for another fishing adventure :)

Full day trip
8-Hour Southern Islands Expedition on May 14, 2023 • 1 adult
I booked a dull day trip for fishing along the Singapore coast. The boat itself has seen better times, but is more than adequate for the intended purpose. We have fished a number of spots using bottom fishing with heavy weights 5 oz. due to the current. IMHO the rods were a bit too light (cw 6-12 grams) for this purpose, making hook setting difficult. Nevertheless, the bites were plentiful and strong. I had a great time and a good conversation with the captain on all things of life. Can recommend the trip!

The perfect afternoon sail
4 Hour Afternoon Weekday (2 MAX) on February 19, 2021 • 2 adults
We are first time rookies. Booked the afternoon slot and hoped for the best and indeed it was! Daniel and Max were great company to have, and they guided us from the beginning on how we could get prepared for our trip. While we were interested to catch fishes, we weren’t too huge on only wanting to fish, we also wanted to have a good time, and with them we did! Dan and Max very kindly allowed us to bring up celebratory champagne on board and also light bites. It was a great way to spend sailing into the almost sunset hour, with a bit of swimming here and there. Not to mention coming back with a pretty decent sized barramundi that was kept alive until we got back to the pier! Can’t wait for our next lazy afternoon offshore!
