About
Fishpen Charters Merimbula is a renowned fishing charter service located in Merimbula, Australia. They offer exciting and memorable fishing trips for enthusiasts of all ages and skill levels. With over 30 years of experience, Fishpen Charters has established itself as a top choice for locals and tourists alike.
One of the highlights of Fishpen Charters is their wide range of trip options. They offer three, four, or five-hour fishing trips to cater to different preferences and schedules. The three-hour trips have gained popularity among families with young children who want to introduce them to the joys of fishing. These trips are also perfect for individuals who are short on time but still want to experience a fishing adventure.
The four-hour trips strike a perfect balance between time on the water and maximising the chances of catching a nice feed of fish. The five-hour trips are exclusively reserved for private charters and are perfect for groups who want a longer and more customised fishing experience.
Fishpen Charters takes pride in creating a comfortable and spacious fishing environment for their guests. By limiting fishing numbers to a maximum of eight people, they ensure that everyone can fish without feeling crowded. During busier times, they accommodate up to ten people to cater to demand. The prices for shared charters are reasonable and include options for adults, children under 16, seniors, and family packages.
In addition to fishing trips, Fishpen Charters also offers private charters for up to 12 people, where guests have the freedom to choose their preferred activities, such as bottom/reef fishing, whale watching, bird watching, or simply enjoying a scenic cruise along the stunning coastline.
When fishing with Fishpen Charters, guests can expect a hassle-free experience. All fishing gear, bait, and fishing licences are provided by the charter, and at the end of the trip, the crew will clean and bag the catch. Guests only need to bring appropriate clothing, snacks, and drinks for the journey. To ensure a smooth sailing experience, Fishpen Charters recommends taking Kwell sea sickness tablets.

Its design allows for easy manoeuvring, making it ideal for both fishing and whale and dolphin watching. The boat also features a toilet and hand washing facilities for guests' convenience.
