Local boat fishing/ general fishing

Can anyone suggest local fishing charters? I will be staying near Causeway Bay and fancy a day out on a boat :) thanks.

Hong Kong offers several options for recreational fishing trips, ranging from half-day local charters to full-day deep-sea fishing excursions. Staying near Causeway Bay gives you easy access to nearby marinas where many operators depart.

Local fishing charter options:

  • Ocean Fleet Fishing Charters – Offers private and group fishing trips, including reef and deep-sea options. They provide all gear and guidance for beginners and experienced anglers alike.
  • HK Fishing Adventures – Focuses on full-day excursions, usually leaving from Sai Kung or Aberdeen. Trips include bait, tackle, and often lunch. They cater to tourists with English-speaking guides.
  • Aberdeen Fishing Boats – Smaller boats are available for half-day trips. Perfect for a more local experience, visiting nearby islands and coves for casual fishing.

Practical tips for your fishing trip:

  • Book in advance, especially on weekends, to ensure availability and to coordinate pickup or meeting locations.
  • Check what is included in the charter (gear, bait, drinks, and food) to avoid extra costs or missing equipment.
  • Consider the type of fishing you want: nearshore for casual catches or offshore for larger species.
  • Wear comfortable clothing, sunscreen, and bring a hat, sunglasses, and seasickness medication if needed.

Overall, a day out on a fishing boat from Hong Kong can be both relaxing and rewarding. Whether you prefer a guided tour for beginners or a private charter for a more personal experience, there are plenty of options near Causeway Bay and surrounding marinas.
