Saltwater Fishing Guides will easily turn your fishing trip into an unforgettable personal experience. With their professional approach, attention to detail, and lots of knowledge, they’ll take you on a journey you can experience only in this part of the world. When you’re joining an enthusiastic and passionate crew, it’s hard to stay indifferent. Get ready for some serious fishing action!

There are two ways to approach this trip - by boat and from the beach. Fishing from the beach is perfect if you easily get sea sick or you’re bringing your kids along. This way you get all the space you need and you can combine fishing with a picnic. Fishing from the boat offers a variety of spots and you can easily go further if the fish aren’t biting.

Go after Yellowtail Amberjack, Snoek, Musselcracker, Geelback, and many more. Depending on what you’re after, you can use different techniques and see which one works best for you. You get to keep the catch, so bring a cooler if you’re saving your fish for later.

All fishing equipment, snacks, and lunch are included in the price. You only need to purchase your fishing license, pack some drinks (no alcohol, please), and pack your sun protection.

Saltwater Fishing Guides try to adjust each trip to meet their client’s needs. They won’t just take you fishing, they’ll help you become better at it. A personal approach, professional equipment, and friendly advice is what you’ll get here.
