Nambas Fishing Charters offers various fishing packages onboard a luxury 40' Blackwatch. The boat was custom built to the highest specifications for all levels of game fishing. Speaking of which, Nambas Fishing Charters can put you on some real massive fish - Blue and Black Marlin, Sailfish, and Tuna are just some of the names.

Based in beautiful Havannah Harbour, the crew has fantastic access to some of the best fishing in Vanuatu, only moments from the marina. The boat carries a full selection of the finest quality Shimano tackle, with downriggers, tuna tubes, and a vast array of lures.

Carrying this tackle onboard at all times means that the crew is always ready to target some of Vanuatu's hardest fighting and most sought after fish species, using the technique of your choice. Whether it's trolling for Marlin, popping for GT's, jigging for Dogtooth or fly fishing, Captain Russ will ensure you have the best possible chance at catching your target fish. Capt. Russ has fished around numerous fisheries the world over, setting many records in game fishing.

The boat is rigged with navigational electronics, stores safety gear, has a toilet, bedroom, kitchen, flybridge, a live bait well, AC, an ice box, and a multimedia system. Once onboard, the crew will help you make the most out of your outing. On shorter trips, they will serve snacks, soft drinks, and water. Lunch will be provided on full day trips. You don't need a fishing license.

When preparing for the trip, pack sunblock, a cap, sunglasses. You will need comfortable clothes and footwear to be able to join the chase. If prone to seasickness, take medication before the trip. It might be a good idea to bring an extra layer of clothes, just in case. And, don't forget a camera. You will want to have nice photos of your catch. Hop onboard and have a blast!

Dreams do come true!
5 Hour Trip on January 19, 20264 adults2 children
My 8 yr old described today in one sentence. 'The best dream I ever had'...the 3 boys all caught fish, with the biggest boast of all being a Marlin. The boat was impressive and the crew were friendly and knowledgeable. Capt Russ, Laura and Marcel made us feel very comfortable and despite my adverse reaction to the ocean turbulence, everyone had a wonderful time. Can highly recommend 👌

Booked a half day with nambas whilst in Vanuatu and could not recommend them enough to anyone visiting Vanuatu! Captain and crew were 10/10, boat was epic! Wouldn't matter if you were a seasoned game fisho or someone who's never seen a rod, you would be in good hands with nambas fishing charters!
