Ponta Delgada, AC, Portugal

Azores Fishing and Adventures offers you the chance to explore the incredible waters around Sao Miguel, targeting the pelagic monsters and inshore gamefish that grow to such incredible sizes here. Choose between half and full-day charters chasing anything from Bluefish to Blue Marlin and get ready for a fishing trip you'll never forget.

The Azores are famous for their instant drop-off and huge numbers of big-game pelagics. This is one of the best places on the planet to try for a grander Blue Marlin, and White Marlin also reach monster sizes. The Tuna bite is just as good, with Bluefin, Yellowfin, Bigeye, and Albacore Tunas arriving in force every summer.

Sao Miguel is also home to a range of inshore gamefish. Bluefish and Barracuda hunt along the rocky shoreline while Amberjack, Triggerfish, and Grouper patrol deep reefs just a cast or two from land. Throw in Bonito and Little Tunny, and you have endless light tackle action.

It takes an adaptable boat to make the most of these waters. Luckily, Capt. Pedro's 23' Tecninautica walkaround is just that. The vessel boasts a range of electronics to get you locked on your chosen species and outriggers to troll multiple lines at once, doubling your chance of hooking a winner.

Once you do find fish, the boat's Shimano rods and reels will let you fish with confidence, while her quality lures make sure no fish can resist your hooks. Azores Fishing and Adventures are strong believers in sustainable angling. All Billfish are catch and release and you can also release Tuna if you choose to.

Everything you need for the fishing itself is ready and waiting onboard. You will be given snacks and bottled water to keep you going, and fishing licenses are included for everyone onboard. Just bring your camera, sunscreen, and comfortable clothing, and jump aboard - the fish won't wait forever!

Had a fantastic time on the four hour trip, wish we had more time! You could see that the crew knew what they were doing and tried very hard to get us fish! We got several and we're very happy!

50kg TUNA!!!
Half Day Trip – Big Game (AM) on July 13, 20252 adults2 children
our family of 4 booked a half day with Pedro and Vashko and it delivered the memories! We chased for the first few hours but remained positive and under up persevering, landing a big tuna to end our experience! It was an experience we will never forget, capped with a delicious tuna dinner tonight. We would definitely do this again as a family and Pedro and vashko were awesome and really friendly! Thank you for a great fishing experience in the azores!!!! The Dunlop family.

The Captain took me over 10 miles offshore in search of tuna. He warned me of choppy seas and possible rain, which we had. He did everything he could to find tuna for me, but some days they just aren't there. The bad weather blew in sooner than anticipated and the Captain and crew handled the conditions with great skill and got us all back safely. I would gladly go fishing with him and his crew again.

We had an amazing day with Captain Pedro and Vasco and caught a huge fish. It was definitely the highlight of our time on the island. It was also so nice to be on the water and away from other tourists for a bit. It was the perfect day I couldn't recommend more highly!!

Epic. Book it. They are pros.
Half Day Trip – Big Game (AM) on September 9, 20252 adults
I have fished around the world and I can say that these guys are professionals. They are gentlemen who fish hard and enjoy what they do. Their enthusiasm is contagious. And the icing on the cake was whipping on two big eyes one 170# and another over 200#.
