Deep Sea Fishing

For an early morning game fishing outing in the waters of Zanzibar, you will go out on a local boat from the island – simple, but well worth it. The local captain knows the area well and has professional anglers. Black and blue marlin, acrobatic sailfish, dorado, yellow fin tuna, wahoo, barracuda and kingfish, all provide endless hours of active game fishing out on the Indian Ocean. The deep sea fishing charter boats are fully rigged and ready to take you out for a fishing experience you will never forget.

You will be trailing a combination of lures, naturally dead or live baits. August to October is the peak season for tuna, and November to March for marlin and sailfish, following the pattern of the monsoon. Fishing in Zanzibar’s deep turquoise blue waters contrasting against perfect powder blue skies and waves lapping against the prow of the boat is a pure delight. Whatever the time of the year, you´ll surely have a great day out.
