About

At Fish Cape Breton Island, we invite you to step aboard for an unforgettable adventure on the Atlantic. Departing from Sydney Harbour, we specialize in private, small-group charters that get you away from the crowds and right into the heart of Cape Breton’s natural beauty.

Whether you’re looking to reel in Atlantic cod and pollock on one of our Deep Sea Fishing trips or want to witness the incredible wildlife at the Bird Islands, we’ve got you covered. As the only operator running tours to the Bird Islands directly from Sydney, we take pride in giving our guests an up-close look at puffins, seals, and bald eagles from the comfort of our 24′ Sea Fox.

We’re all about creating a personalized experience. Because our tours are private, the boat is yours—whether you’re a seasoned angler, a family looking for a sunset cruise, or an adventurer wanting to snorkel our coastal waters. Come join us at the Dobson Yacht Club and let us show you the rugged coastline we call home.
