With a safe and convenient dual boat ramp, open-boat Apollo Bay fishing is extremely popular. Good fishing spots will depend on sea conditions and we recommend seeking local advice before heading out.
Beach fishing trips inside the harbour include the chance to catch Silver Trevally (at times schools of them!) and Mackerel. Therefore, the best fishing in Victoria can be found in the Apollo Bay region and along the Great Ocean road.
No matter where you are the local fishermen are very helpful with beach fishing tips (such as good fishing spots and what types of rigs to use).
While fishing in Apollo Bay, be sure to plan ahead. Our website provides information on where to stay as well as how to get here. Once you’ve arrived you can either visit our information centre or ask a local for the best Apollo Bay fishing spots.
