Fisherman's Friend Soap | Sea Water Lathering Natural Soap for Boaties and Fishing
Fisherman’s Soap is a specialised natural soap designed to lather effectively in sea water, making it ideal for fishing, boating, and coastal adventures. Handmade in small batches at Hidden Valley Broome using traditional cold-process methods, this functional outdoor soap is built for life on the water and rugged outdoor use.
Formulated with a higher coconut oil content, this soap creates a rich, stable lather even in salt water conditions where most soaps struggle to perform. It is also enhanced with natural cleansing pumice for added scrubbing power, helping remove grime, fish residue, and strong odours from hands and gear.
Infused with a distinctive blend of essential oils, including Chinese star anise (traditionally used to attract fish scent interest), along with antibacterial tea tree and fresh pine, this soap is designed for both function and outdoor practicality.
Super-fatted with nourishing mango butter, it helps prevent dryness while still delivering a strong, effective clean. The result is a hardworking yet skin-friendly soap designed for harsh outdoor conditions.
Each bar features a striking black base with opal-like swirls of blue and green, reflecting the colours of ocean water and coastal environments.
