Overview

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.

What's Included

  • We provide fishing rods and life jackets
  • Alcoholic beverages If you wish to enjoy a cold beer or bottle of wine please bring your choice of beverage.

What To Expect

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.

Top10Adventures® wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Top10Adventures® over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
