Unforgettable Darwin fishing charter with Barra Private Tours

A stay at Hudson Apartment Hotels in Darwin isn’t complete without a day on the water. One of the most popular activities our guests rave about is fishing with Barra Private Tours, a local operator known for exciting barramundi adventures, stunning scenery, and personalised service. Even better, Hudson guests enjoy an exclusive 10% discount.

A True Top End experience 

Fishing in the Northern Territory is unlike anywhere else in Australia. With tidal rivers, billabongs, and coastal waters, Darwin offers some of the country’s most exciting fishing spots.



Barra Private Tours captures that spirit with flexible charters designed for all levels. Led by passionate guide Captain Flo (Floran), every trip blends expert knowledge, patience, and plenty of local insight.

Options for everyone

No matter how much time you have, there’s an adventure to suit:


  • Half-Day charters: 4 hours on the water, perfect for up to 4 people.
  • Full-Day charters: Includes pick-up in Darwin, plus snacks, spring water, and lunch.
  • Multi-Day trips: For keen anglers, with remote locations, accommodation, meals and gear provided.


These flexible options make Barra Private Tours a great choice for couples, families, or even small corporate groups.

Chase the iconic Barra (and more)

The star of the show is the Barramundi, a bucket-list catch, especially during the Million Dollar Fish season.



But depending on the time of year, guests may also hook reef species or other saltwater and freshwater fish.  Every trip is tailored to the best conditions, so you’ll always have a rewarding day out.

Fun, comfortable and family-friendly

Never fished before? No problem! The crew is patient and happy to guide beginners through casting, trolling, and lure fishing. Families love these tours, kids get a thrill from the chase, while parents enjoy a stress-free day where everything is taken care of.


The modern boats are fitted with GPS, fish finders, ice boxes, and quality rods and reels. Transform your fishing with advanced active target live transducers. See beneath the surface and spend more time targeting fish, maximizing your catch.


Enjoy unparalleled comfort with our adjustable seats and convertible shade system, ensuring a perfect fishing experience regardless of the weather. Accommodating up to four passengers, offers a comfortable and memorable experience.

More than just fishing

What makes these trips special is the Top End setting. Guests often spot crocodiles, birdlife, and incredible scenery along Darwin’s waterways. Wide-open skies, mangroves, and sunsets turn a fishing day into a true Northern Territory adventure!
