 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An excellent experience - can highly recommend. We did the 4hr School Holiday session 11.30 - 3.30 and it was ideal for my 11 year old. We took home plenty of snapper and flathead and about five other species were caught by people on the boat. The boat, the crew and the equipment was all first class. I've done lots of charters and this was the best. Thanks.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a great day fishing with Rip Charters. I had  my 2 grandchildren with us (10 & 12) and we all had many catches. The crew were so helpful and knowledgeable and on hand to unhook the fish straightaway and cleaned and filleted our catch ready to take home. Highly recommended!
