Spend 5:00 to 9:30 pm aboard a Red Boats fishing charter from Westhaven Marina, targeting snapper, kahawai, gurnard, and other local fish. The crew supplies local know-how, but you should bring bait, dinner, and a chilly bin. Rod hire costs $20 per person, so confirm your gear needs before setting off.

“The Captain and crew were great, knew the best spot, we caught so many we lost count. Just make sure you take about 3-4 kg of bait, we ran out of bait.”

2.Full-Day Fishing Charter (7 am – 4 pm)

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 3 reviews · 9 hours · from $45

Set out from Westhaven Marina at 7 am for a full day fishing Auckland’s Hauraki Gulf. The English-speaking Red Boats crew provides local guidance and rods are available to hire for $20 per person. Bring your own bait, lunch and drinks, plus a chilly bin for your catch, or use the shared one onboard.

“Great day! Enjoyed fishing, weather was great, and the captain was a lovely gent! Just note there is no bait or fishing tackle supplied with this charter unless you pay an extra fee to borrow tackle, which we gladly did.. but the bait was way trickier. So for others that may struggle as we did, most petrol stations around there carry bait. We bought pilchard and others had squid. Both worked well!”
