About this tour
This 2.5-hour session puts you on the farm where barramundi are raised, then into the water to catch your own. You'll walk through the breeding operation, learn how the fish are farmed, then spend time with a rod in hand trying to land one. Finish with a tasting board that showcases what these fish can become on a plate. It's hands-on and straightforward—no filler, just fishing and food.

What to expect
Start with a walk around the farm to see how barramundi are raised from fingerlings to harvest size. Your guide will explain the operation and what makes these fish worth eating. Then you'll head to the fishing area with a rod and tackle provided. Whether you've fished before or not, staff will help you cast and work the water. You might hook something; you might not—that's part of it. Either way, you'll finish with a tasting board that lets you sample what barramundi tastes like prepared well.
Good to know
Bring sunscreen and a hat; the farm is exposed. Wear shoes with grip for walking wet areas. The fishing section is relaxed—no experience required. Children and infants welcome, including those using prams.
