plunker Posted December 5, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Does anyone have any idea of the cost of this? We have been there before and seen people fishing and my son would like to try it. Does it need to be set up beforehand? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PurpleHays Posted December 6, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 6, 2015 It's listed as an excursion on their website. I don't remember how much it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buchananglasgow Posted December 6, 2015 #3 Share Posted December 6, 2015 We have just returned and did the surf fishing as an excursion with princess. It was $39 per person. It's for 2hrs and we enjoyed it very much. They give you your rod all set up and a bucket with pre cut squid in it. There are guys who sit on the shore and take your fish off for you to return them to the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plunker Posted December 10, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Thanks for your help. Did you set it up beforehand or can you just go there and fish in case our son changes his mind? I read a review that its very rocky and they kept getting snagged and to bring a bobber along to avoid that. Did you have problems with snags? Thanks again.

buchananglasgow Posted December 10, 2015 #5 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) Joe had booked with princess before we went but I only booked to join him a few days before we got to princess cays, when we were half way through our cruise. The rods were set up for the right number of us doing the trip, I don't know how many other rods they have for people just walking along to do the fishing. It might be they only do it for those booked as the whole place is run by princess cruises. Snagging, I got snagged once as I was not getting it out far enough, the guy came and got it off easily. It's rocky in some places and you are standing in the water just out from the shore, it's coral rock so wear water shoes. It shelves out gently, I was waist deep in the end and quite safe. Just watch for the seventh wave, as there a bit bigger. But really you can stand on the shore and not enter the water, it's just better to be in it and get the bait out further to get the bigger fish.
