Great way to spend half a day

We arrived to a friendly welcome and were introduced to Alex our guide for the tour. Being from NZ we didn't know a lot about Barramundi but learned a lot about fish breeding and rearing in general, which is not normally our thing this type of tour but we really enjoyed it. Next, we got to fish in the ponds for barra and while unfortunately Tracey didn't catch anything (that's fishing) I was lucky enough to catch a 89cm 10kg. We then went and enjoyed our tasting platter. For us, this was a great value for money activity that is professionally run by enthusiastic staff.

1st Barramundi catching experience

Fantastic day, knowledgeable staff and great food. Thoroughly enjoyable, would definitely recommend to everyone. This was our first Barramundi fishing experience and we caught a couple of fish over 900mm.

Catch a Barra! Tick!

The whole experience was amazing, the farm tour and feeding the Barra, the farm tasting platter and of course the fishing! Never caught a fish in my life and I hooked 2 large Barra! Highly recommend trying this unique opportunity.

Amazing farm to table experience

We thoroughly enjoyed the 1 hr farm tour! Lee our tour guide was fantastic and very knowledgeable! We left with a deeper appreciation and understanding of Barra farming and what we eat! The highlight was the amazing food! Farm to table ! The freshest you’ll ever taste! If you’re in PD do yourself a favour and boot a tour of grab a bite! You won’t be disappointed! ❤️

Highly recommended. I got a big one!

Husband and I did farm tour, tasting platter and fishing. The young guy (Cody I think) was great. Friendly and knowledgeable. The fish platter was divine. Very tasty and just the right size. The fishing was so much fun. I got an 80cm and lost a few. Hubby got one half that size that we ate for tea. Highly recommend this place. It's 30 mins out of Port Douglas. Whole farm is well run and worth every cent.

Sounds like a great time and we're very happy you got one to take home to cook after trying our popular tasting platter. Look forward to seeing you again soon!
