🌊 Black Pearl I: The Elite of Sport Fishing in Madeira

Where the Giants of the Atlantic Meet Their Match.

If you are looking for the true essence of fishing in Madeira, the Black Pearl I, is your ultimate choice. More than just a boat trip, we offer a high-performance expedition aboard a 28ft Boston Whaler Outrage, powered by 600 HP of pure Suzuki strength.

🎣 Our Specialties:
Big Game Fishing (The Epic Quest): Feel the adrenaline of a strike from a Blue Marlin, Bluefin Tuna, or White Marlin. With elite-grade gear and state-of-the-art sonar technology, we put you face-to-face with the ocean's most coveted trophies.

Bottom Fishing (Action & Technique): For those who crave constant action, we master the local fishing grounds in search of Snapper, Grouper, Sea Bream, and other deep-sea species. This technical modality requires the expert knowledge that only our local crew can provide.

🚤 The Vessel: Technology & Safety
Navigate with the confidence of an unsinkable hull and the precision of modern navigation systems. Our cruising speed ensures we reach the best 'hotspots' in record time, maximizing your time with a rod in hand.

✨ Beyond Fishing:
Capacity: Up to 8 passengers with total privacy.
Professional Crew: Captain and First Mate focused entirely on your success and safety.
Versatility: Deep-sea diving and tailormade coastal tours for those who want to relax in style.
The waters of Madeira hold no secrets from us. Come and discover yours.

Awesome trip

4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on June 6, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

The booking process was seamless. Captain Luis contacted me 2 minutes after the booking and asked some questions about the party, (ages of the kids). Based upon that, he chose a larger more comfortable boat for us. He then touched base with me a few days before and the day before the trip, with perfect directions. He and his colleague, Felipe gave perfect instruction and helped couple of kids who had never fished before. We ended up catching about 25 fish. I would definitely recommend him and would use him again in the future. I've been on many charters and this was one of the best.

Nice fishing trip with lots of fish.

4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on June 12, 2026 • 4 adults

Luis and Duarte were good hosts and helped us a lot during the fishing. We kept on searching for good spots. First 1,5 hours we didn't really catch that much, until we found some better spots and managed to return home with a bag full of fish, around 10kg in total, around 30 fish! Way to much for ourselves so we made some neighbors really happy 😊 Very recommendable!

Muito obrigado Dylan, ao principio o peixe parecia que não queria nada connosco, mas depois deu cabo dos vossos braços, muito bom.
Adorámos a vossa companhia, voltem sempre.
Muito obrigado

Really great time

4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on June 2, 2026 • 2 adults

Went with a group including a range of fishing experience. Some never fished before, some had, every person felt uniquely catered to and the vibes on board were brilliant. 

Would recommend for sure!

Fantastic day on a boat

4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on February 1, 2026 • 2 adults • 2 children

It was great family time which resulted in fish that we were eating for the next few days:) Everything was very professional. Even if somebody from the group is not interested in fishing it's still really nice to spend time watching gorgeus Madeira coastline from the upper deck.
