About Diver's Fishing Charters Hobart
Diver's Fishing Charters Hobart is a boutique charter operation specialising in small-group fishing and diving trips on the waters around Hobart and Tasmania's south-east coast. Operating from a purpose-built 11.7-metre vessel named Kylin — equipped with top-of-the-line fish-finding electronics, professional-grade tackle, and a spacious dive platform — they offer an experience that sits well above the typical tourist fishing boat in both quality and intimacy.
Their trip menu covers a remarkable range of on-water experiences: bottom fishing for flathead and trevalla in the sheltered waters of Storm Bay, deep-sea chasing of southern bluefin tuna and striped trumpeter in the open ocean, crayfish and abalone diving on rocky reefs teeming with marine life, and scenic exploration of Tasmania's famous giant kelp forests and cold-water coral gardens. Trips run as shared charters (maximum 12 passengers) or private bookings, with morning and afternoon sessions available year-round. All fishing gear, dive tanks, weights, and safety equipment are provided — guests just need to bring warm clothing and a sense of adventure.
What sets Diver's apart is the versatility of the experience — you can fish and dive on the same trip, mixing rod-and-reel action with underwater exploration in a way that few charter operators offer. The skipper's local knowledge of southern Tasmania's reefs, drop-offs, and seasonal fish movements means the boat is always positioned over productive ground. For visitors who want a genuine Tasmanian marine adventure rather than a sanitised harbour cruise, Diver's Fishing Charters delivers an authentic, hands-on experience just 15 minutes from Hobart's city centre.
