OUR STORY

DURBAN, KZN

NeuroWave Fishing Charters was born from a love of the ocean and a strong connection to Durban’s fishing community. The company provides guided fishing experiences across the bay, backline, reefs, mid-deep and offshore waters.


From someone holding a fishing rod for the first time to an experienced angler chasing the next memorable outing, every charter is planned around the selected trip, seasonal opportunities and prevailing marine conditions.
