Fishing in Cape York

Local operators based from Seisia, near the tip of Cape York, have the unique opportunity to fish three distinct areas - the north east coast of the Gulf of Carpentaria, the Torres Strait and the eastern tip of Cape York coast. Fish pristine rivers, wilderness coastline, and nearby coral fringed islands for a great tropical sports fishing experience.

Fishing in Cooktown

Cooktown is unique for its close proximity to a myriad of angling environments. You can fish the outer reef for its legendary black marlin; the inner reef for coral trout, red emperor, mackerel and tuna. On the beaches, headlands and coastal flats you'll find trevally, queenies, permit and the elusive bonefish; and in the estuaries chase barramundi, mangrove jacks, fingermark and crabs. And way up in the sweetwater jungle, perch and sooty grunter abound. This is a fishing paradise!

Grassy Hill - The Lighthouse

Cooktown was established in 1873, but no beacon guided ships through the reef until the lighthouse was built in 1886. It was supplied by Chance Brothers Ltd, England, and for years was one of only four along the Queensland coast. Small lighthouses were staffed by a lone keeper who announced the arrival of ships by raising a flag. At midday a time ball was dropped from the signal staff.

Grassy Hill - The Radar Station

Just as Captain Cook had found Grassy Hill such a natural vantage point, so the aspect proved a natural option for new communication and detection technologies as they were developed.
