7 reasons to book with Northern Conquest Charters

The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef and one of Australia’s most treasured gifts. It contains an abundance of marine life and comprises over 3000 individual reef systems, coral cays and golden beaches. Cairns is the closest major port to the magnificent Great Barrier Reef, arguably the greatest fish attractor on earth. The plethora of fish in this beautiful part of the world is what many keen fisherman simply dream of!  Why not turn that dream into reality?  Here are 7 great reasons to live out that dream and book a reef fishing trip with Northern Conquest Charters!

1. Boat

Our Cairns Reef Fishing trips are on board our ‘Sir Reel” vessel.  ‘Sir Reel’ is a 58’ Conquest Vessel, purpose built for fishing in comfort and safety.  The accommodation cabins are all airconditioned, ensuring you can sleep in comfort if you are staying overnight.  Our boat is fully stocked with an extensive range of quality fishing equipment. There are loads of extra’s onboard to ensure you will want for nothing such as a big screen TV, dvd, wifi and freshwater showers!

2. Trips to suit every budget

We offer a variety of reef fishing trips that depart from the Cairns Marina.  We are proud to offer trips to suit most budgets. Starting with full day trips, to overnight trips to extended reef trips…..we have something to suit most people!  Our extended reef trips offer a great opportunity to spend more time out on the water.  You can travel in air conditioned comfort while experiencing some of the best reef and coral sea fishing you have likely experienced.  Or if you prefer a slower pace, you can swim, snorkel and enjoy the sun!

3. Locals knowledge

Our guides have in-depth locals knowledge of the fish and best fishing spots.  We have a ‘roaming permit’ which allows us to pick the best fishing spot on the day.  If the fish aren’t biting we’ll move to another great location. It is local knowledge and wealth of fishing experience in Cairns & the Cairns Region that makes Northern Conquest Charters one of the best fishing experiences that you will ever have.

4. Great Staff

Our great team take pride in giving our passengers an enjoyable, reef and coral sea fishing experience aboard our large, comfortable, fully equipped boat.  No need to get your hands dirty...our experienced and helpful deckhands will gut, gill and bag up your fish so your prized catch is ready for you upon return to port.

5. Amazing location

The Great Barrier Reef is known as one of the 7 natural wonders of the world. It is World Heritage listed and is the only known spawning ground for giant black marlin in the world.  This is a place of great natural beauty, warm, tropical waters and some great fishing locations.

6. Variety of fish species
