Reviews: Kaikoura Fishing with Captain TOMO/IAN [Deep Sea Fishing & Lobster Catching]

Guest User2026-02-21

We caught lobsters and some fish fillets (the captain will process the fish and distribute them to each family). Because I get seasick, my fishing experience wasn't great, but my travel companions who don't get seasick had a blast!
