About us

Local crew. Big fish. Good times on the water.

A young husband-and-wife team with a lifelong love of the sea, sharing Rarotonga's waters one trip at a time.

Born from a lifelong love of the sea

Raro Fishing Charters is run by a young husband-and-wife team with deep roots in Rarotonga’s tourism scene. It brings together everything we love: local knowledge, a passion for fishing, and sharing the ocean with the people who visit our island.

Our skipper has spent years on the water, and fishing has always been his first love. Just as important is the way he connects with people, from first-timers to seasoned anglers and from kids to grandparents. Starting our own charter felt like the natural next step. A day with us is about more than the fish you catch. It’s about the memories you take home.

More than just another fishing charter

Whether you’re after an adrenaline-filled day chasing big fish offshore or a relaxed family outing on the water, every trip is shaped around you.

Experience the ocean like a local

We tailor each outing to suit you, whether you’re new to fishing or have been doing it for years. We’ll take you to spots only locals know, share the techniques that work in these waters, and make every moment on the water count.

Safety comes first

Your wellbeing comes before everything else. Our crew are trained in first aid and emergency procedures, our gear is top quality and checked regularly, and we know the local weather and sea conditions well. From the moment you step aboard, you’re in safe hands.
