About Us
Locals. Fishers. Family.
Welcome to Jackson Bay Charters, your gateway to unforgettable fishing adventures on the stunning West Coast of New Zealand. Owned and operated by Murray and Rachel Petrie, we are a small, family-run charter business based in the beautiful Jackson Bay area.
As lifelong fishing enthusiasts and proud locals, we’ve combined our love for the ocean with a passion for sharing this incredible part of the world with others. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or casting a line for the first time, we’re here to give you a true West Coast experience - relaxed, friendly, and full of adventure.
With Murray at the helm and Rachel keeping things running smoothly onshore, you’re in expert hands. Our trips are all about great fishing, local knowledge, and making memories that last long after the day ends.
Come and explore the wild beauty of Jackson Bay with us - we would love to have you aboard.
