The freshest fish in Cape Town, delivered straight to your doorstep. We now operate a direct delivery service in Cape Town.

We are a Cape Town based family run fishing business that services the restaurant, hospitality and wholesale industry with high quality, seasonal and locally sourced fish and seafood products. The COVID-19 lockdown kick-started our ambition to bring fresh fish directly from the ocean to anybody's home in under 24h. Greenfish is proud to be a part of the global solution to overfishing by encouraging more sustainable seafood choices from responsibly managed legal sources that are environmentally sound. We commit to ensuring that all of our seafood offered will be sourced from legal fishing operations and traceable back to its point of origin. Every single package includes information about the species, origin, and production method (fishing gear used, or wild-caught/farmed). We deliver a fresh passionate product with knowledge of its origin.

The moon’s still on duty when our working day begins. 🌙⚓️

The bow pointing towards adventure, Cape Point lighthouse above us and the first light of sunrise spreading across the ocean.

There’s a moment before the day gets busy when you just have to take it all in. The fishing can wait a minute. 🌊🎣

Early starts have their rewards.

🏆🍣 THE BOX DESERVES A LITTLE SPOTLIGHT TOO!

We put so much care into the sushi inside. Seeing that same care recognised in our packaging? That’s a proud moment! 💚

Greenfish Sushi’s packaging has scooped THREE honours at the 2026 Gold Pack Awards:

🏆 IPSA Gold Pack Trophy 2026 — Greenfish Sushi Meal Solution
🥇 Gold in the Perishable Food category — our sushi box
🥉 Bronze in Transit & Secondary Packaging — our delivery bag

From protecting each carefully crafted piece to keeping your soy sauce, ginger, wasabi and chopsticks neatly in place, every detail has a purpose. Our box even converts into a serving tray, making that first unboxing part of the experience. 🍱✨

A huge thank you to our packaging partners, Shave & Gibson Packaging, for helping bring this vision to life and entering it into the awards.

And to everyone who has ordered, unboxed, shared and enjoyed our sushi — thank you for being part of the journey.

From our boats to your doorstep, the care carries through. 🎣🍣💚

🎣🌊 THE CAPE CAST | Your Weekly Fishing Fix! 🐟

It’s Thursday, and that means it’s time for The Cape Cast, brought to you by Greenfish!

Welcome back! Join us for your weekly snap shot fishing report as we look at this week’s waters and what to expect along the Cape coastline, from Lambert’s Bay to Cape Point, False Bay, Struisbaai and beyond!

🌊 THE OUTLOOK – What can you expect from this weekend’s wind, swell and fishing conditions? We look at where things are shaping up and which areas may be worth keeping an eye on.

🐟 WHAT’S BITING? – Catch up on the latest fishing activity, reported catches, water temperatures, water colour and what’s happening along our coastline.

🧰 THE GREEN TACKLE BOX – Fishing tips, knots, lures, techniques, fish facts, regulations, sushi and a little local knowledge to keep you hooked!

♻️ RESPECT THE RESOURCE – Take what you need, release what you don’t. Limit your catch, don’t catch your limit!

Colour that stops you scrolling. A story worth staying for. 🔴🎣

Beautiful fresh Red Stumpnose, traditionally handline-caught by local fishermen out of Struisbaai. Behind those brilliant reds are skilled hands, early starts and a fishing heritage worth supporting.

Why does the catch method matter?

🎣 Selective hook-and-line fishing gives fishermen more control over what they catch.
🪸 No trawl nets dragged across the seabed means less disturbance to reef habitats.
🤲 Individually caught fish allow for careful handling from the moment they come aboard.
⚓ Buying from local fishermen supports coastal livelihoods and keeps traditional fishing skills alive.

For us, the story starts long before a fish reaches your plate. It starts with the people who catch it, the methods they use and the communities they call home. 💙

Rule number one: be lekker. 💚
There’s enough sunshine for all of us. ☀️

Our sashimi platter sparked a few “Is that AI?” comments. We’ll take the compliment! 😉

Yes, we used AI to enhance the photo’s colours — with the same aim as using an Instagram filter or adjusting the colours on your iPhone: making the picture pop. The platter itself? Caught, sliced and prepared by me.

Here’s the evening behind the picture. 🎣🥢

Yellowtail sashimi, yellowfin tuna sashimi and lightly seared yellowfin. Both fish caught with my own hands, carefully prepared and presented on the yellowtail’s frame to give this beautiful catch pride of place.

From the ocean to the chopping board to a table full of mates — this is something I love doing. Taking care of the catch, making something beautiful and sharing it with good people.

The boys cleared it in under five minutes. No artificial appetites around this table. 😂

Which would you try first — yellowtail, yellowfin sashimi or seared tuna? 👇

A catch worth honouring. A platter worth pausing for. 🎣🥢

Yellowtail sashimi, yellowfin tuna sashimi and seared yellowfin, carefully sliced and arranged on the yellowtail’s own frame — letting the fish take centre stage.

I caught both fish with my own hands. Preparing them like this is a proud moment: showcasing their beautiful colours, textures and flavours, with care and respect from the ocean to the table.

Then the boys tucked in… and the whole display was gone in under five minutes. 💚

Some shades of blue you have to see to believe. 🌊💚

Our green boat shining against the ocean, with Ryan and Richard at the bow pulling in a yellowfin by handline.

We spend so much time watching the water from the deck. Seeing it all from above gives us a moment to appreciate just how spectacular our little corner of the ocean is.

This is Greenfish. A boat, a handline, and a whole lot of heart. 🎣

🐟🧠 Can eating fish actually make you smarter? 😏

True or false? 👀 We took to the streets to find out who really knows their fish facts and who’s just fishing for answers! 😂🎣

From brain power to heart health, fish has some pretty impressive benefits. But how much does the public actually know? 🤔

🎤 Hit play, test your knowledge, and see if you can beat our street interview contestants!

Let’s see who’s got the fin-telligence! 🐠🤣

You came for a beach day. We turned up with sushi. 🍣🏖️

We surprised a few strangers by the ocean with a box of Greenfish Sushi to unbox and taste on camera. First looks, first bites and their reactions, straight away! 👀

What did they have to say? Watch the unboxing and find out. Would you take a bite if we walked up to you? 😏🍱

Thank you to , .cm_ and .child for joining in and sharing your first impressions! 💚
