The fishing & crabbing is great!
One of the features of our magnificent cruising area is the abundant fish and crab life that inhabit our waterways and are available to you for catching. Whether you catch a fish for dinner or just for fun and release, our cruising area offers some of the best fishing and crabbing areas you will find.
No fishing or crabbing license is required to fish the Coomera Houseboats cruising area and we are happy to supply information on bag and size limits as well as species identification guides.
At Coomera Houseboat Holidays we have a fully stocked bait and tackle shop to help you with your fishing and crabbing needs as well as stocking block and party ice.
Most commonly caught fish and crabs in our cruising area are:
Bream, flathead, whiting, cod, mangrove jack, trevally, tailor, jewfish, flounder, soul, Australian salmon, sand crabs & mud crabs.
Fishing hotspots can be found under JD folder “Hot Fishing Spots”.
