Book a trip with Wildcat Charters, based in the beautiful Golden Bay. Our licensed vessel is fully equipped for everything you will need to have a great experience on the sea, whether it's fishing, or a sightseeing trip in Abel Tasman National Park. We're here to give you a great experience on the sea.
We specialise in providing fishing and sightseeing trips for small groups from Golden Bay year round. Our smaller fishing groups are perfect for the novice fisher, as they allow you to have one to one guidance from Leigh on catching your fish, & you have plenty of elbow room for that fight when hauling in the monster from the deep. All bait & quality fishing gear is supplied with fish filleted & bagged for your convenience, where possible, unless you want to take them away whole!

On our Scenic Trips from Golden Bay into the Abel Tasman National Park, enjoy the unique views of the scenery and bird life in the National Park's many secluded bays from the boat. You can choose to go swimming and snorkelling in the beautiful sapphire blue water or stay onboard to soak up the sun and scenery. This is a perfect trip for that unique golden sunrise photo, whether you're a novice or a professional photographer, you can't go wrong.

Refreshments are available on all trips, all you need to bring is your sense of adventure, your sunny's, a hat & your camera. We'll supply the sun block!

We can also provide you with accommodation just a few minutes drive from the port. We have a variety of self contained apartments, ground floor units have patios giving easy access to the garden, balcony level units have views of the bay. Contact us directly for a great package deal.
