Activities
Although we are primarily a sport-fishing destination, there are other lodge activities and local experiences which you may care to enjoy. We realise that sometimes it’s nice to just sit back and relax for a couple of hours, so there’s lots of comfortable chairs and lounges for you to wind down with a book or a cold drink.(Or even that afternoon nap!)
Remember that we have plenty of DVD’s available or you may care to simply watch a bit of sport on TV.
And given that our well stocked bar is open all day, there’s always the opportunity to enjoy a nice cold drink!

“My fellow presenter, Curtis, and myself get to visit some amazing places when filming our ‘Surfing The Menu’ TV program. However, Clearwater Island Lodge is certainly amongst the very best locations we have filmed at.
We both love fishing and good food – and at Clear Water Island Lodge, you get both! The fishing environment is pristine and the hospitality which was shown to us by Michael, Kerri and David was simply first-class. I am really looking forward to coming back to fish in this magic wilderness location as soon as I possibly can.”
