About

Sea Eagle Offshore Adventures is a brand new charter service run by the combined skill of accomplished game fishermen Gary Myburgh and Justin Berry. We are based in Simonstown, from where we run charters all over the Cape Town coast. We provide varying types of trips with knowledgeable guides and an experienced crew to guarantee your enjoyment and safety. Whether you're after a scenic whale or birdwatching experience (or even just viewing the majestic Cape Town sunsets from the water), or an adrenalin-filled day of big game fishing, Sea Eagle offers it all. Gamefishing is our passion, and Gary and Justin have more than 60 years' combined expertise when it comes to the sport.

We use almost exclusively Maxel tackle (although you are also welcome to bring your own tackle if you would prefer), which has proven itself time and time again to be able to withstand the strain of even the most punishing fishing, and Sea Eagle's Atlantis and BigEye are the official boats of Team Maxel. We hope to see you onboard soon!

We offer a range of trips to suit your needs. Below are our most common charters, but if you don't see what you're looking for, please contact us to see if we can arrange it for you! Many of our trip types are group trips, so bring your friends as you'll be booking the boat and crew for the day. If it's just you, please ask about per person rates (but then you might have to fit in with one of our personal trips, which often start very early!). For fishing trips, all tackle and bait is included. Snacks and drinks are included on all charters, but please do bring your own food.

Captain Gary Gary has been fishing since he was six, and started fishing on boats in False Bay in the days when giant Bluefin Tuna still frequented the corner between Simonstown and Fishhoek. He is an expert in all aspects of gamefishing, in both fresh water and salt water, and his experience ranges from casting dry flies to trout in mountain streams, to pursuing giant marlin and tuna . He has fished most of the better known spots along the entire Southern African coast, and has an extensive knowledge of the habits of most of the gamefish found in our waters and how to catch them. Gary has held a skipper’s license since 1992, and has thousands of hours' experience on the waters off and around Cape Point, having fished the area both commercially and recreationally for over 20 years Gary has a particular passion for catching game-fish using casting and jigging tackle. He is also a skilled fly-fisherman and fly-tier. He is one of a small group of captains who has the knowledge and experience to guide clients in search of the blue-water gamefish which frequent our waters, using fly tackle.

Captain Justin Justin Berry brings his skippering skill and experience coupled with his extensive fishing knowledge to host you on an awesome day aboard Atlantis. Justin has been the skipper of a commercial tuna vessel for several years and holds an over 9m commercial SAMSA skippers ticket. More recently he has concentrated on recreational tuna trips and his patience and passion are well suited to ensure an unforgettable day's fishing, whether you are a seasoned angler, or completely new to fishing.
