Absolute Ocean Charters Fishing Charters & Whale Watching in Broome reviews
46It was a pleasure doing this cruise. The team were very helpful friendly and knowledgeable. Pity we didn't spot too many dolphins and that there is quite the restriction but had a lovely day on the water. Would defintely recommend this company
We booked the tour at short notice and everything worked out wonderfully. The boat crew was great and very informative.
We saw the dolphins shortly before sunset. It was a successful trip. Would book him again.
Went on a sunset whale watching tour with AOC a few weeks ago and it was amazing! Saw more whales than I could ever have imagined in three hours and were told some great facts/information about whales by Amy the marine biologist. The whole team were super helpful and lovely and you could tell they really enjoyed their job. Wonderful value for money and the highlight of my Broome trip!
Did a half day fishing trip with AOC - 2 adults and 2 girls17 and 13 years. Had the best time! Highly recommend it, the best way to fish, the team would bait up, help you reel in (race the sharks), fillet the fish etc. The whole family really enjoyed the day, caught some nice fish, had the perfect amount of time and we even saw whales!
Started off with a 0715 pick up from our accommodation, then at the ramp by 0800. We for onto the water rather quickly after a lovely safety demonstration.
The skipper was full of wisdom in regards to the local waterways and conservation of local marine life, which was easy to be heard by multiple speakers throughout the boat. We were lucky enough to see just under a dozen dolphins, a couple of sea snakes, flat back turtles, a few swimmer crabs, and a beautiful 3m mantaray. Honestly, it's worth doing; I would say if you are short on time but want to see the beautiful local sea fauna, as someone who's done a fair few tours in Broome, this would be one of my top recommendations.
Boom net was great fun, FYI that kids must be accompanied by a guardian whilst in the net; so parents bring your swimmers!
The staff were amazing, super lovely taking photos for families and couples of their little adventure. Plenty of food provided with a bar available, even catering to vegetarian/dietary restricted guests without prior notice of the cruise. There is plenty of shaded area and seating both on the upper & lower deck. The toilet was clean, easy to use, and well ventilated with prompting for those not used to boat loo's. I did notice that a few individuals with dexterity/strength issues struggled with the boat transfers and boom net access, but that is a given when in the ocean. There are plenty of handrails for those who need it.
Thankyou team for the lovely conversations and hospitality. My partner and I truly had a divine time!
Fantastic day and fantastic crew! Shout out to Jim, Matty and Gil, skippers Scotty and Mick! You guys went above and beyond! To the lovely ladies, Amy was so informative with her marine knowledge, Katie, Bianca and Kelly, are glue holding this amazing team together! I highly recommend this as a must do when visiting Broome, they do not disappoint! See you again soon
Had a lovely afternoon out on the beautiful Broome waters. Staff and commentary terrific. Saw several whales, especially lovely to see a mum and bub.
First time whale watching and didn't disappoint. The crew were great. Very informative. Arvo tea and drinks were great.
One of the most amazing things I've done in my life, absolutely magical. The crew was fantastic. One thing I'd improve on is a concrete/visible location on the beach where people can meet, especially self-drivers.
I have been on two tours with AOC and found them to be very professional and helpful. From being picked up from my accommodation, cleanliness of the boat and knowledge that the staff impart.
We joined your sunset whale-watching cruise and Broome bus tour. Very happy with the excellent service of the tour staff who are helpful, professional and friendly. Thanks to Amy, Kelly and the whole AOC team!
The best day on the water Ive had in memory. Saw 4 pods of whales, many schools of sharks, caught plenty of bottom feeders as well my first Mackerel on the trawl.
An a grade true blue outfit, get on a tour with them.
Great day out fishing. Caught a big variety of fish. Staff super helpful especially when snagged or tangled
We took 6 kids out on the charter and had the most satisfying day, they caught an abundance of variety of fish which we enjoyed eating for the following days, the crew was amazing helping everyone out but a big thanks to the skipper he was always getting us on the fish, would highly recommend and will definitely return.
Cheers guys
Great day out, very well planned and executed. Plenty of fish caught, although not many buy me. Never stayed on a reef too long and when the tax man took our fish you moved on quickly. Never caught my targeted Spanish Mackerel either but maybe next time when i bring my two sons back. Cheers AOC.
From initial contact with AOC to pick up, day out, and drop off was a very friendly and professional service. Very comfortable and clean boat, yummy food and drinks supplied.plenty of fish bought on board. Mick and his crew were both very helpful and attentive throughout the day. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Well done team AOC. Keep up the great work. Good luck and best wishes. Thanks for looking after us so well.
My husband enjoyed the charter bought as a gift for his birthday. Great crew onboard! Only caught a couple of fish but enjoyed the experience, the emperor fish was great eating the next day.
100% recommend AoC to anyone thinking of going deep sea fishing. The service is professional and top notch and includes pickup/drop off from accommodation, putting you on the fish and cleaning/filleting your catches. Staff friendly and knowledgeable. The boat is spotless clean, very stable with toilet on board so ladies can go on this charter with comfort. I only went on the half day tour as I usually only last half a day before I get really seasick (even with pills) but this time I only burped a couple of time and even am able to enjoy the morning tea and delicious lunch provided. Free flow soft drinks are provided. In between line drops, the skipper did a little trolling which landed us 3 Mackerels and 1 Tuna which are shared among the passengers. Overall, fantastic trip! Next time when I am in Broome, I know exactly which charter I will be going fishing with.
Our snubfin dolphin cruise was a highlight of our time in Broome, lovely smooth boat with plenty to see and high quality food and great drink options, would suggest this as a "must do" cruise for anyone visiting Broome
Memorable experience! The booking & communications from AOC made this a very easy surprise gift for my husband. He had an absolute blast the entire day. Staff were friendly, helpful and they encouraged each member of the charter group in their skills and experience. Food was plentiful and having drinks etc included made this a fabulous Broome experience. We would highly recommend this to anyone. Thanks AOC - and keep up the passion & great work!
