The story of the day
For avid fishermen, the entire charter can be spent outside the East Coast lagoon in the open ocean, targeting marlin, tuna, dorado and other game fish. Or mix it: a couple of hours fishing, then cruising and a swim in a beautiful anchorage — the day is flexible and tailored to you.
Mauritius is famous for deep sea fishing, with perfect conditions year-round for beginners and experienced anglers alike. The island holds several IGFA world records, including a 1,115-pound mako shark — and the famous Blue Marlin, top of the food chain, lurks in these waters. Battles can last hours; the longest fight in Mauritius ran twenty-six hours before the line broke.
From the moment you step aboard you're immersed in the Mauritian sea, guided by a crew who have fished it all their lives.
