As you draw away from the unspoiled Mauritius coastline aboard a great cabin cruiser, you'll know that you're in fishing paradise! Horizon Fishing is a family business, and with over 50 years of experience, they're happy to help you have an amazing time on the water.

The 42' D'unienville cruiser boat is fitted out for deep sea fishing, with two 220 HP Cummins marine engines, full navigational systems including an echo sounder with a color monitor, and a range of safety devices. There's a spacious deck for fantastic views of the ocean, a kitchenette with a microwave, an enclosed shower, toilet, and a spacious cabin.

You'll use some of the best quality fishing equipment, including Fenwick rods with Penn International reels, and a Penn downrigger. There are three fighting chairs on board, so you can reel in those monster specimens. If you want to take your catch back home and prepare a delicious meal, the crew will be happy to clean and fillet the fish.

Fishing trips involve trolling with live and artificial bait for Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Shark, Tuna, Bonito, Wahoo, and Barracuda, depending on the season. The biggest fish tend to be around in the warmer season from November to April, making this a great place to get some winter sun and go fishing.

The experienced team aboard Horizon never leaves the dock without a selection of good-quality lures and live bait to give them the best chance of attracting a bite. The crew considers every day to be a new opportunity to learn more, and they are enthusiastic about sharing this experience with you.

Don't waste any more time, book Horizon Fishing, and have an unforgettable time fishing the Mauritian waters!

    Perfekter Ausflug

    Full Day Trip on October 15, 2023 • 2 adults

    Bereits der Service mit der Abholung am Hotel war einfach genial. Danach gleich aufs Boot und ab. Eine entspannte Fahrt zum Spot und dann ging es von 0 auf 1000 in nur paar Sekunden. Wir konnten viele Wahoos landen und einen Mahi Mahi. Leider blieb der Traum vom Marlin aus, was aber durch die Professionelle Art & Weise des Teams einfach auch egal ist. Irgendwann komm ich wieder und dann hol ich Ihn Mir 😅.

    Full day with BBQ & Snorkeling

    Full Day Trip – Snorkeling & BBQ on January 31, 2023 • 3 adults • 2 children

    Nice fishing trip with two kids. Everything went well from the beginning of the trip to the end. Nicholas and Julien took good care of us and did everything they could to find the active fish. Despite the fact that the conditions were not the best, we still had 4 strikes during the morning. The biggest fishes were missed this time, but we still managed to catch a really nice and rare Spearfish.

    Half Day fishing with BBQ and snorkeling

    Full Day Trip – Snorkeling & BBQ on August 27, 2022 • 2 adults

    Beautiful day with a very professional crew that took us in search for hunting grounds in deep ocean. We didn’t get the big ones but plenty of action with at least 15+ strikes and 9 skipjack tuna landed. Dorade were clearly around and could be seen approaching the jigs, but they were not in the mood. That’s fishing. Again thanks to the crew who searched and found cluster of activity on the surface by looking out for seagulls assemble (and believe me it’s not easy once you are in the middle of the ocean). Morning of fishing ended with some nice spotting of dolphins on the way back and a nice BBQ (including the promptly filleted fish from the morning) in a quiet and beautiful spot in Grand Bay.

    A day to remember

    Full Day Trip on December 22, 2023 • 2 adults

    After a few hours of trolling since early morning we had nearly lost all hope for a catch. But Captain Nicholas and his crew knew what they were doing, we caught a beautiful Blue Marlin of approximately 170 pounds early afternoon. Captain and crew gave us assistance and good advice for bringing the fish safely in. A great day to remember!

    Full Day Trip on August 13, 2022 • 3 adults

    Had the best days fishing experience ever after fishing in every country I’ve ever visited. Bruno had us on the fish straight away and kept them coming all day in extremely rough conditions. The small tuna was prepared back at our hotel and fed all 8 of us. Just perfect, all still smiling today. If you are looking for an amazing days fishing then book up with Nicholas. 🎣👌😁

Horizon fishing is a family affair and with over 50 years of fishing experience, they're delighted to be able to combine their two passions – fishing and family. The father and son dream to run big game charters finally came true in 1994, and the family has never looked back. They are proud to have built a solid reputation and are delighted to welcome back some of the same guests year-on-year. Every day is different on the seas and brings with it its own charms. However, the most memorable moment for the family was landing two 750+ lb Marlin in the same day!
