Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Heff is an absolute legend! After our booking with another company got canned very last minute, with no help to get in another one, I called Heff and he was able to very quickly get us sorted out on a charter. We went on the Dragon Lady and had an amazing day on the water! It was a small party and the fish were getting reeled in all day. The crew were super helpful and approachable. We will be using Heff and the team again next time we’re in Port Douglas, without a doubt!

From booking all the way through to getting off the boat was friendly and professional
The day was amazing and plenty of fish caught
Would have been perfect if one of the passengers hadn’t walked off with my fish - no blame to the staff

Great day out, good crew, nice and relaxed with everyone getting a decent catch for the day.
I was recommended by a friend who went with Dragon Lady years ago and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a good day out.

Great locations with great staff, equipment and food. Staff were super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful, ensuring that the trip went smoothly, safely, and was plenty fun. This is definitely a top option for fishing charters in the Cairns region.

Yes , you get a full refund. I have been to Port Douglas many times and been on Dragonlady many times. Sometimes the charter will be cancelled due to bad weather or lack of numbers. They take your credit card details to secure the charter but don't charge if the charter is cancelled. I've never had any problems
