Tunana Fishing Charter is a family owned business that keeps getting more people high on the adrenaline, year after year. Siblings Marko, Cici, and Nana are an unbeatable team when they fish together and they have already won several Tuna fishing tournaments. This time, they gather their forces for you and to make sure this is the day you’ll never forget!
Join this fun crew on their 38’ Cantieri Costa Smeralda boat that accommodates up to 6 guests. She’s fitted with a private toilet, a small kitchen, a bed, and lots of seating space. To help you get to your fishing spot in no time, there are twin 380 HP Caterpillar engines and to help you battle the fish more easily, you can use the fighting chair.
The star of the show is, of course, Bluefin Tuna. But you can also have lots of fun and excitement going after Mahi Mahi, Mackerel, and Shark. Depending on what you’re after, you can use bottom fishing, deep sea fishing, and drift fishing as your main techniques.
Your fishing equipment and licenses are fully covered by the crew. The price also includes your snacks and drinks on the boat. The adventure doesn’t have to stop early, and you can take a multiday trip, which also covers your accommodation.
With the fully equipped boat and experienced crew, you will enjoy your Tuna fishing experience in Croatia. Year by year and Tuna after Tuna, the Tunana Fishing crew continues to live and breathe the sea and the local fisherman lifestyle. Join them and share the adventure!

Big Game Tuna Fishing 7h Trip on August 12, 2024
Thanks to Marko and Stefan to make my first tuna possible. Start 03:30 am, travelling to the sardine fishing boats. And Marko did pick the correct one: A lot of dolphins around, strike after a few minutes fishing and after 40 minutes my first Tuna, crew did guess 80-90kg, released. Travelling to next spot for drifting, next strike after a few minutes, unfortunately line broken without much pressure; mystery - but that's fishing. Thank you so much guys for this great experience in big game fishing.

Big Game Tuna Fishing 7h Trip on August 7, 2024
One of the best days of my life. We left at 3:30 in the morning under a starry sky. After an incredible sunrise with dolphin visit, we started fishing. It didn't take long for the fish of my life to bite, an incredible fight. The crew was mega nice and courteous to me everything was explained very precisely delicious drinks and there was also food. I can only recommend it, it was an incredibly beautiful day, the best in my life, I will come back🎣❤️

Big Game Tuna Fishing 7h Trip on May 14, 2022
We had a really nice experience with Tunana! For us four it was the first fishing trip. Marko and his father were really relaxed and explained everything to us. The Tunana is a really nice boat with enough space. The guys are perfectly organized, early morning coffee and some breakfast, a good snack an enough beer, everything was there. The crew knows the spots for tuna. Shortly after sunrise we were able to see them really close to us. Unfortunately the tuna didn’t bite. In the end we were lucky and had a blue shark on the hook. We cut the line after he came to the surface. It was a really nice trip and we will definitely come back and get some tuna! Thx Makro!

My name is Marko born in Pula 02.11.1990. Since we bought the bigger 12m boat in 2021 I decide I’ll quit my Navigational Officer job and start work permanently on our Tunana family business. I fell in love with tuna fishing in 2013 the moment I hooked and rilled in my first bluefin of 2,11m and 110kg. After that few more personal records and endless fights with this magnificent fish and countless dawns and sunsets at sea onboard our Tunana boat. Every tuna I catch I’m happy as it’s my first one, and always remind myself how grateful I am to have this opportunity and privilege to work as a captain on a charter boat and to share such amazing experiences with fishermen from around the world. My goal is to transmit this wonderful experience of spending a day at sea, on such a nice boat, the lifestyle that I’m lucky to live for the most part of the year, all of that whit few rods in the sea waiting for the most wonderful fish to bite and to cheer us up even more!
