Get ready for the ultimate “Sea Venture” and join Captain Saad Alkandari on an exclusive journey through the Persian Gulf! Capt. Saad grew up fishing off the coast of Kuwait, so he’s accumulated all the knowledge of his forefathers and put it to good use. He invites you to catch lots of fish and create lasting memories off the shores of Al Khiran.

You’ll be fishing from a 38’ offshore cruiser, equipped with state-of-the-art electronics, safety equipment, and fishing gear. She’s powered by 3 outboard 300 HP Suzuki engines, so you’ll zoom off the coast towards some of the hottest fishing grounds in no time.

The boat also comes with a multimedia system, so you can listen to your favorite tunes while you fish. On board, you’ll find a private toilet, shower, and a cooler stocked with soft drinks and water. The deck is spacious and accommodates up to 10 guests and kids of all ages are welcome.

Capt. Saad’s nearshore trips run up to 28 miles from the coast, while his offshore trips take you 10 miles further. You’ll depart from Al Khiran Resort and fish some incredible locations, including Umm al-Maradim, Kubar, and Garoh islands, as well as Benayah, Mudar, and Alhalah reefs.

Your targets will include Tuna, Queenfish, Spangled Emperor, Golden Trevally, Nannygai, Goliath Grouper, Mackerel, Barracuda, and various species of Shark.

Other fun activities, including snorkeling and spearfishing, are also available. Snorkeling equipment is available for everyone, however, to spearfish, you must be 18 years or older, bring your own gear, and purchase a separate license for it.

Top-of-the-line Penn and Daiwa rods and reels will be provided for all other types of fishing. Just make sure to bring sun protection. Remember to dress appropriately and please note, alcohol and drugs are strictly forbidden.

Your crew will take care of the rest, so book your trip and join Sea Venture for an unforgettable day of fishing!
