Explore the wild waters of South Africa with Sensational Magic! Let Captain Francois take you on a journey that every angler dream of. Whether you have a preferred technique, a type of ground you want to visit, or a fish you want to catch, there’ll be a trip for you.
The boat you’ll be fishing from is a 28’ custom boat that accommodates up to 8 guests. She’s powered by twin 115 HP Suzuki engines and features navigational electronics, a live bait tank, and a cooler for the catch. She’s also equipped with top-notch electronics as well as downriggers, for more productive trolling trips.
What makes South Africa fishing unique is the beginning of every trip. Right at the beach, you’ll be greeted by big waves come at you, rocking the boat before you even get going. This is bound to get your adrenaline pumping in a matter of minutes. Afterward, with over 500 active fishing spots in the area, you’ll enjoy endless action as you work to fill out your cooler with tasty fish, or at least have a blast battling them!
Go after smaller fish, such as Flounder, Mackerel, and Bonefish, or reach the deeper spots, where you can go after Tuna, Amberjack, Barracuda, Mahi Mahi, and more. One of the best parts is that you get to keep everything you catch and the crew even cleans it for you. Depending on your luck, you could leave the boat with lots of tasty fillets, ready for the grill.
The crew covers your fishing equipment, license, and soft drinks. Pack your snacks and other beverages, and don’t forget to bring your sun protection.
Join the amazing crew who’ll make sure you enjoy your day on the water. Sensational Magic is waiting for you!

Highly recommend using Sensational Magic for your next fishing trip. An extremely well organized experience from booking to fishing. Caught many different species and had some excellent dolphin sightings. The kids loved the experience. Thank you Ansie, Francois and Timothy for a memorable day.
