Your Gateway to Queensland’s Pristine Waters
Learn traditional fishing techniques from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander custodians who share their deep knowledge of the land, sea, and sustainable fishing practices. This unique experience introduces participants to contemporary fishing methods, from cast netting to using hand lines, and promotes environmental awareness. Beyond learning the techniques, participants gain a greater respect for natural resources, sustainable harvesting, and the cultural importance of fishing for Indigenous communities. This service is ideal for those looking to experience the beauty of the environment through an Indigenous lens and to develop a connection with Country.
