Embark on an extraordinary adventure with Takapu Charters! Our charter trips unfold aboard the 73-foot vessel, The Parimar, offering a comfortable base for your exploration of Preservation Inlet and Chalky Sound. Your 6-night journey promises an immersive experience, with each night spent at a different anchorage, weather permitting.

The trip includes a helicopter ride into Fiordland and the boat is fully equipped with a skipper, deckhand, and cook. We also have a 6-meter tender boat that is perfect to get you out and about fishing, hunting, and diving. Trips are tailored to the group’s individual interests.

You’ll be dropping lines from a 73’ Miller & Tunnage Cruiser that holds up to 8 passengers. These waters are known for Crayfish, Blue Cod, Tarakihi, Hapuka, Kahawai, Scallop, Kingfish, Striped Trumpeter, Bluefin Tuna, and more – with any luck, you’ll hook into a few! Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, along with lures.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, sunblock, insect repellent, and a rain jacket. There will be food and some light snacks included on board.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that daydream into a reality, with Takapu Charters
