Spend the day with Beach Bums Fishing Charters and let them show you what makes fishing on the south coast of Zanzibar so memorable!
You’re likely to go after Yellowfin Tuna, Dogtooth Tuna, Giant Trevally, Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Kingfish, Wahoo, Amberjack, Bohar Snapper, Coral Trout, Black Marlin, Almaco Jack, and more if conditions allow. The captain specializes in topwater fishing with poppers and stick baits. They do trolling and jigging. It all depends on what the client wants to do.
You’ll be dropping lines from a 25’ Center console that holds up to 5 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures. Sometimes live bait is available. Ask the captain for details. The catch belongs to the crew, but the customer will receive one fish.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish. Young ones are welcome, so get ‘em offline and onto the water! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own.
Some essentials to bring are sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Some drinks and snacks will be offered, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Beach Bum Fishing Kialua!

Full Day Trip
My wife and I booked a full-day fishing trip, and it was an incredible experience! The boat was the perfect size—sturdy and comfortable, allowing us to venture into deeper waters for some exciting big-game fishing. It was also extremely well-equipped, with over six trolling rods, a deep rigger, and top-notch jigging/casting rods that helped us target all the species we had in mind. Captain Zandre was fantastic—super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. While I didn’t catch my dream Sailfish, the day was far from disappointing. We landed over seven massive Mahis and Wahoos, keeping us on our toes and in action the entire time! At one point, we were even swarmed by a school of (what we believe were) giant Wahoos, which broke two lines and went after the deep rigger's weight ball, leaving teeth marks behind! Zandre also provided delicious chicken sandwiches, cold drinks, and fresh fruit snacks, which kept us energized throughout the day. Overall, the trip was very well organized, and I highly recommend Captain Zandre and his boat. If you're planning a fishing trip, I would suggest opting for this larger, well-equipped boat, especially if you're after bigger catches beyond the reef. It was definitely worth every penny, and we'll be back for another adventure on our next trip!

Our fishing trip with Beach Bums was great. They brought all kinds of food and drinks for us to enjoy on the boat. For the first part of the morning the wind was blowing fairly hard and we did not have any bites. However, around noon we found fish and caught 3 within an hour including a nearly 50 lb barracuda fish that put up a great fight!
