Bermagui is almost world famous for its deep sea and game fishing, including yellowfin tuna and marlin, and estuary fishing in the surrounding rivers and lakes. The American author Zane Grey, a famous writer of westerns, was largely responsible for establishing Bermagui as a renowned marlin fishing destination, as he wrote of his experiences fishing in Bermagui in An American Angler in Australia in 1937. If deep sea, big game fishing or any sort of angling is your idea of fun, then take a charter, hire a boat or launch your own or find the perfect shoreside spot and throw in a line.
