We just did a kids charter with Theo and the crew. My two boys haven't stopped talking about it. It was a great day on the water. The fishing was one thing but the vibe on the boat was perfect. The kids were kept engaged all trip and learnt about the boat, the bay, and got to see seals and dolphins. Theo always had an answer for the weird and wonderful questions kids come up with, and shared his passion for what he does with them in a way that was perfect for the kids. Don't Worry Theo they still haven't told me your secret salmon spot!
We had a great trip with Theo and his crew. The kids loved catching fish and squid. Great value for money and a great school holiday ctivity
We booked a private fishing charter unfortunately the weather turned bad, so the crew rescheduled us to make sure we could enjoy the trip properly. The next weekend the weather was even worse, not their fault, and instead of pushing us out in rough conditions, they offered a full refund.
I’m leaving a review because that level of honesty is rare. These guys genuinely care about giving people the best experience, even if it means losing money. You can tell they put customers first, and that’s why I’ll be booking with them again!
Best private charter we’ve ever booked! The deck was absolutely firing and we landed some cracking big snapper. Captain Theo and the crew knew exactly where to take us, made everything easy with the rods and bait, and kept the vibe relaxed but super professional. Perfect day out on Port Phillip Bay honestly can’t wait to book again! Thank you guys!
We had an incredible time with Sorrento Fishing Charters! Skipper Theo was fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone had a great experience. The action was non-stop, and we caught a variety of species, which made the trip even more exciting. The boat was well-equipped, and the entire experience was seamless from start to finish. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an unforgettable day out on the water! If you are down the Mornington Peninsula and want some fresh fish, don't go to the fish shop, call Sorrento Fishing Charters.
