About
our company
We have always found peace being by the water, rod in hand, casting in and out. Couple that with our passion for the marine environment of Port Phillip Bay and you have us.
We are Portarlington Boat Hire, established in 2020 and intent on sharing this special and spectacular part of the world with families, friends and fisherpeople. We want to make exploring Port Phillip Bay easy, accessible and affordable so you can connect, immerse yourself in the marine environment and be better people for the experience that we know and love so much.
OUR story
Coming for a strong and steady background of marine adventures (childhood, work endeavours and passion pursuits), Portarlington Boat Hire always found escape by being out on the water.
From fishing, swimming, boating and everything in between, solace and calmness has come from all activities pursued out on the water, especially on the waters of Port Phillip Bay. Holding a special space in Portarlington Bay Boat Hire’s heart, the bay was their childhood playground and is now their adult one too.
OUR why
Intent of affording people the same opportunity they have had, Portarlington Boat Hire want to connect you to the incredible benefits and experiences of water.
Recognising the restrictions inhibiting this, Portarlington Boat Hire set about making it easily accessible and affordable for all people to access the magnificent Port Phillip Bay. They want you to captain your own endeavours and reap the rewards.
