and stability allow for easy boarding and safe boating for children, the elderly and physically challenged guests.

And for your convenience.............
There are male and female eco-friendly toilets onboard.  

Your Crew
Our Skipper Craig has been a keen fisherman since a young age. Brought up at Woodgate and Bargara he loves the Fraser Coast and has been
fishing the waters of Hervey Bay for the past 9 years. He now combines the customer relations skills he developed in the Travel Industry with his
first love, fishing, to assist others to discover the natural beauty of the Hervey Bay Waters.  

Our young Deckhand Thomas also has a passion for fishing and will be on hand to ensure you have plenty of bait  and the landing net when you
need it.

Our crew have been fishing since a very young age and take great pleasure in introducing youngsters to the sport.

Your Experience
Whether you choose to join us for a fishing trip or a relaxing cruise, DayTripper offers a clean, comfortable and unique way to experience
magnificent Hervey Bay and the Great Sandy Straits.

Hervey Bay waters are a delicately balanced eco-system and we want to see it remain that way for years to come.
To assist towards keeping that balance we adhere strictly to size and bag limits and ask that you take only what you need and eat everything you
take.

What to bring

a camera just in case you catch a big one and if you have them a set of binoculars are handy for bird watching etc.
