Fishing in Jordan is truly an incredible experience. If you haven't ticked it off your bucket list yet, now is the perfect opportunity to do so. You will catch some great fish and be fishing like a pro in no time. Captain Marwan Shriem of Aqaba Charters has decades of experience and will be with you every step of the way, teaching you the tricks of the trade.

Spend the day on board a great 24' Proline boat which can comfortably fit you and 7 friends, with space to spare. This vessel has a 200 HP Yamaha engine. Coupled with fishfinder and Capt. Marwan's extensive knowledge of the area, you are sure to be on the fish before you know it.

Even kids will enjoy the shorter trips. There is no minimum age, as Capt. Marwan believes that mom and dad know best. If you think your little one is ready to hold a rod, then bring them along! There is even a bed on board which the kids can nap in if it get's a bit too much. Life vests are provided for them as well.

Between May and November you will target a range of species, including Swordfish, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Barracuda, Kingfish, Amberjack, and Shark. November to March will see you reeling in Skipjack Tuna and Bonito, and April is great for catching Dogtooth Tuna. So whatever time of year you go, there will be some great fishing opportunities.

When going after these great fish you'll be using Penn, Shimano, and Stellar rods and reels. This top of the line gear will not let you down when you are reeling in your trophy catch. Whatever your skill level, you'll find a technique to suit you, matched with the perfect rods and reels to help you hook and reel in your catch.

There is no better time to book. Come down to Jordan and fish with Aqaba Charters today. You'll catch great fish and make lifelong memories!

December fishing trip
8 Hour Trip on December 30, 20257 adults
There were seven of us on the trip and Capt Marwan made sure that each caught a nice fish, not to mention the few we managed to lose after hooking. He knows his waters and his techniques so you can count on action, if you go fishing with him. Tuna of 4-5 kg were fierce fighters, as well as a 12 kg barracuda, not to mention the new experience of catching squid from as deep as 500 meters below your boat. Highly recommended!
Reported catch:
Skipjack Tuna

Incredibly beautiful experience with our family. Fishing at 500 m depth in a stunning location about 15 minutes by boat from Aqaba. Super friendly captain. Catch: octopus, 7 sharks, pomfret. The latter cleaned by Captain Marwan and we had a delicious meal at home.

Half day with Captain Marwan
5 Hour Trip (AM) on March 17, 20214 adults1 child
We had a lovely experience with Captain Marwan! He is truly a professional fisherman. We were able to bring home tuna, barracuda, and Pomfret. He had a variety of equipment to ensure that we could bring home fish. He was so kind to show us a place that would clean and fillet it for us.

Fantastic 5 hours on the Red Sea with Captain Marwan
5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 25, 20194 adults2 children
I took my two sons (15 and 10) and a friend's son (9) with four of us and we had a fantastic time. Captain Marwan made the the time on the Sea enjoyable, educational, and comfortable. We caught a Mahi Mahi, had squids escaped, and the Captain wanted to stay out longer for us to catch more, but we had to go back in for another appointment. But this shows the dedication of Captain Marwan to give the best experience even by lengthening the time at no cost. I would definitely recommend Captain Marwan and look forward to going again if in Jordan.
