Excited to catch some fish in Diani Beach? Make it happen, with Sea Skipper Fishing Charters!

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Cobia, Blue Marlin, Black Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Little Tunny (False Albacore), Sailfish, Rainbow Runner, Swordfish, Striped Marlin, Giant Trevally, Bigeye Tuna, and plenty more. During the trip you might be spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Capt. Suheil welcomes anglers of all ages, including kids, so get 'em offline and onto the water! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks to stay fueled throughout your trip!

Capt. Suheil operates a 30' custom cuddy cabin with room for 4 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

It's always wise to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

The click of a button is the only thing keeping you from a great day on the water with Sea Skipper Fishing Charters!

Half Day Trip (AM) on January 24, 20263 adults
Suheill and his crew did an amazing job from onboarding to organising dinner at our resort and everything in between. Staff was very friendly, skilled and engaged. Suheill is not only knowledgeable about fishing but also about local politics and culture, plus he has a great sense of humour. We asked for soy sauce and he went shopping for us, we had special requests about the kind of fish we want to catch and he delivered as well. Communication was spot on from the very beginning, we're more than happy to have booked him. Thanks again for the fantastic experience and wish you and your crew all the best on your future endeavours!

Absolutely FANTASTIC game fishing in Kenya
Half Day Trip (AM) on December 31, 20252 adults
Dont't think twice! If you love fishing - you need this trip! It's a unique experience of game fishing in Kenya you can hardly get in other regions! Here, you have extremely good chances of getting a sail fish or marlin, as well as many others! We got a huge sail fish and will remember this day forever:)) The boat is a professional fishing boat with top quality equipment. And the most important, the Captain and the Crew! They are super dedicated, experienced and professional. And they were doing their very best so that we get our super trophies. It's very precious to be part of such a great team! Thanks a lot and hope to come back again!!

Big Game Fishing at it's Best
Half Day Trip (AM) on December 6, 20252 adults
Our six-hour trip with Sea Skipper was a complete success from start to finish. Although we were initially worried about the price, that concern quickly proved unfounded – it was worth every penny. Before the trip, we received a friendly and informative briefing and were comfortably driven to the boat in a modern van. The well-prepared crew greeted us warmly upon arrival. The food, equipment, service, and overall organisation exceeded our expectations. A real highlight was learning different fishing techniques from Suheil. The peak moment came when we caught a magnificent sailfish, took some photos, and released it back into the ocean. We also briefly had another sailfish and a large wahoo on the line. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone, even those who don't usually fish. It's an unforgettable experience!

Great day fishing from Diani!
Full Day Trip on November 15, 20252 adults
We did a full day trip with Suheil during our stay in Diani Beach. Pickup from our hotel and just a short drive to where the boat was being kept. Lunch was provided, which was a very nice Chicken Biryani. We were into our first fish in less than 20 minutes of the lines going out! Went on to catch 2 Wahoo and 2 Mahi over the day. The larger Bull Mahi was great fun to catch on lighter tackle! We also had some great dolphin watching during a quieter period. Suheil and his crew were professional and helpful throughout the day; would definitely recommend.

great day on the water, caught beautiful fish, great hospitality, safety first
Half Day Trip (AM) on January 5, 20264 adults
Captain Suhail was the best host from start to finish. Excellent communication right from the start, and and picked us up in his very comfortable SUV. He had attentively arrange breakfast for us on the boat. The fishing lines were expertly set and we caught a beautiful dorada and wahu, what a sight, and what a feeling to reel them in from the fighting chair. Safety was paramount and came first at all stages of the trip. We took an alternative route into the reef area on the way back when the waves and tides picked up. Safety first.
