8 Hour Trip – Just A Day Out

Full day Fishing and swimming trip with Capt. Mako

It was one of the best fishing experiences I have been on to in the Red Sea, we did some jigging and popping as well as some trolling on our way back. We also went to a beautiful area for swimming and the water was a beautiful crystal clear turquoise color. Overall my experience was a 10/10 would deff recommend to all my friends and family. The hospitality was amazing, the boat was clean with top notch safety and equipment. Worth every penny I paid. The captain was very friendly, knowledgeable and passionate. This will not be my last time for sure.

My wife and I had the amazing pleasure to set sail with Captain Mako in a tremendous fishing trip. It was the best experience I have ever had, Captain Mako was an amazing host who had a very well prepared boat, with excellent equipment and great facilities and service. We had an awesome time, I highly recommend it and a bucket list item to have!
