Native Crew – Fishing & Tours
Native Crew has a trip with your name on it along the stunning waters of Madeira Island.
These waters are known for Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Dentex, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Gray Triggerfish, Skipjack Tuna, and more – with any luck, you'll find out for yourself! For these species, you're likely to drift and bottom fish using light tackle.
Trips with Native Crew are open to the whole family, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board.
Your day begins aboard a 22' Starfisher saltwater fishing boat with room for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. There's a small toilet inside of the cabin for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer depending on the season.
Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. It's customary to tip the Mate to show your appreciation. There's no need to buy a fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
Don't forget to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks provided on board.

J’ai passé une excellente matinée avec Pedro et Dino ! J’ai auparavant fais plein de sortie de pêche dans différents pays mais cette sortie était vraiment spécial. Ils nous ont beaucoup informé sur la pêche local et les poissons de saisons afin de pêcher le plus possible. Ils étaient très à l’écoute et nous avons pu bien discuter ce qui rend la journée encore plus sympathique. Ils ont vraiment fait de leur mieux pour nous et nous les remercions 👍🏼👍🏼 Je recommande 1000x les yeux fermés

Boat fits four, and there were four of us on my trip. We each caught 1-2 fish, but they can’t filet the fish for you (in Funchal harbor). So bring your own bag and carry a fish home or leave it at the dock. The day started which a little bit of light trolling (where I caught a Skip Jack), and then bottom fishing at about 100-120 meters, so be prepared to reel a lot. The crew knows the spots and the baits that work - and this matters. Water and beer available. It is also a nice way to hang with a few other like minded tourists who want to fish a bit when in Madeira.
Pedro and Dima were some of our favorite people we met on this trip, me and my new wife were down for our honeymoon and I’ve never been on a charter that worked harder to get you a catch. Pedro also provided a great recommendation for where to cook our fish, great time, great people would highly recommend.
the Captain and first mate did a great job to do everything in their power to get us on fish. After 6 hours, of fun fishing but no luck, we thought it might not be our day. we continue to troll all the way back to the dock and hooked three in tge last hour and landed two 👍🏼 #wahoo
Firstly i want to give a big shout out to Pedro and Dino who are two really friendly and genuinely cool dudes that make the whole fishing experience super fun and informative by answering any questions you may have on the trip. The trip itself was really focused on tracking down the fish through watching currents and monitoring the fish finder instead of endless trolling just to catch one or two fish like most big game charters. The smaller boat and lighter setups allowed for a very dynamic fishing approach throughout the day and resulted in us catching a barracuda, amberjack, tuna, hogfish and other smaller reef fish like grouper. Additionally the crew provided drinks, snacks and a great environment to joke around and have a good time. Felt like a morning on the water with some friends. Will definitely book again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a good charter on Madeira.
