Meet the person behind the boat. Shaun brings local knowledge and years of experience to every trip, making sure your day on the water is safe, relaxed, and enjoyable.
Shaun
With years of local experience, Shaun knows the reefs and rivers inside out. Passionate about fishing and customer experience, he loves helping guests land great catches while enjoying a relaxed day on the water.
“I’ve been on a few different charters over the years, but this one with Reef and River Charters honestly felt like having my own personal fishing guide. I never felt like just another number on the boat. Shaun was a great host, super friendly and switched on, and made sure everyone was into the action. Top-notch experience.”

Full Day Deep Sea Fishing Experience
“What a day! The Aussie Day Out is hands down one of the best ways to experience the Gold Coast. Super relaxed, no rush, and we got taken to secret local spots I’d never even heard of. We ended up on our own private beach and Shaun knew exactly where to go and what to show us. You can tell he genuinely loves sharing his local waterways.”

Aussie Day Out Adventure
“I loved the chilled, personal vibe of this tour – it honestly felt like having my own guide for the day. Such a good way to escape the hustle of the city and the packed beaches. We pulled up on our own sandbar, had a great meal at an island bistro/cafe, then did a little hike through to a secluded beach. Couldn’t ask for a better Gold Coast day out.”
