Hook-A-Barra Farm Tour with Lunch from Port Douglas

This half-day trip from Port Douglas gives you a different take on Far North Queensland fishing without needing to head offshore. You’ll visit an award-winning barramundi farm for a behind-the-scenes tour, learn more about how the fish are raised, and have a go at landing barramundi in a safe, land-based setting. Lunch and fresh produce tasting are included, along with all fishing gear, so it’s a straightforward option if you want to try fishing without needing prior experience.

The experience includes transport time within the total four hours and starts with a bus ride that covers the local area and some natural history along the way. At the farm, your guide takes you around the site for a closer look at barramundi farming, then helps you around the ponds for the fishing session. All equipment is provided, and the setup is designed to suit a wide range of abilities. There’s also a paddock-to-plate tasting and lunch featuring fresh produce from the farm.
