Welcome aboard for your next fishing adventure
We know what makes a good day at sea: great company, expert guidance, a comfortable boat and the thrill of a proper catch. Since 2018, Mary Ellen 2 has been operating as a Scarborough-based boat fishing trip company, welcoming both individual anglers and group parties with a maximum of 12 persons on board. From the moment you step out of Scarborough Harbour, you are part of our crew and receive a warm welcome along with free tea and coffee served throughout the day.
We run Scarborough’s premium sea fishing trips, Catch More Fish with Local Experts, taking both first-time anglers and experienced fishermen to proven fishing grounds. Whether it is a short trip or a full day at sea, our focus is always on helping you enjoy the experience, land fish and create unforgettable memories. Our local know-how takes you straight to the best fishing spots so you can focus on the excitement while we handle the rest.
