Boat Tours from Quidi Vidi Marina

About this activity

We offer the most unique marine adventure in Newfoundland. You will get to catch and keep your own cod fish so please bring a cooler to take your cod fillet back with you.

Life is short, let's enjoy the experience on the mighty North Atlantic.

There is nothing better than a day on the North Atlantic chasing the famous cod which has defined our province for over 500 years.

For the more adventurous we also offer Shark Fishing Charters (Blue Shark, Porbeagle, Mako and Great White)

We offer custom tour packages for those looking to enjoy the taste of freshly cooked cod right off the boat. We can pan fry your catch as soon as we clean your fish while you enjoy a cold beverage and relax after a fantastic day on the water. Please inquire for details and availability.

Itinerary

Enjoy a day of cod fishing or we can try to photograph some humpback whales and with any luck we may even find some million-year-old icebergs floating by. You may wish to just relax on deck and enjoy an ice cold beer while the puffins swim along the ocean surface. It's time to relax and enjoy the beautiful North Atlantic Ocean while floating past the most easterly point in North America, Beautiful Cape Spear. Cod fishing season opens the first weekend in July and closes Labor Day Monday. Please verify your tour dates coincide with the cod fishery if wishing to go cod fishing. NL Boat Tours is a PET FRIENDLY experience, please bring a leash as your pet may get excited with the sights and sounds on-board.
