    Отличный опыт в глубоководной рыбалке

    Half Day Trip (AM) on September 9, 2026 • 2 adults

    Организация, трансфер и все подготовительное - отлично. Сама специфика океана и рифа - довольно сильно ощутимое «укачивание». Команда отличная, снасти тоже. Есть локатор, но к сожалению не повезло, была только 1 поклевка и мы завершили через 4 часа из-за сильно укачивания. Как опыт - интересно. У Команды хороший английский и понятные обьяснения.

    Smashing Trip

    Half Day Trip (AM) on October 1, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had a fanstatic day on the sea skipper with Suheil and his crew! We went right at the start of the season and still managed to catch 4 great sized Mahi Mahi. Suheil and his crew are so knowledgeable and was happy to share in their previous experiences. One of the crew members filleted one of our Mahi Mahi for us to take back to our hotel to be made fresh by the hotel chef. It was so fresh and absolutely lovely. We will definitely return with our son next time. What an expereience. We would highly recommend! Steve & Andrea

    Great day of fishing!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on October 5, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had such a good time fishing in Diani. The captain and crew were super friendly and helpful, and they clearly knew where to find the fish. We caught some really nice dorado and had a lot of fun throughout the day. They also filleted our catch for us afterwards, which was a great touch. Everything was easy, relaxed and well organized. A really memorable experience and definitely one of the best activities we did in Diani. Would absolutely recommend them and book again!

    Highly recommended

    Half Day Trip (AM) on January 24, 2026 • 3 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, 2025 • 2 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!!

    Great day fishing from Diani!

    Full Day Trip on November 15, 2025 • 2 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.

    Awesome Adventure

    Half Day Trip (AM) on September 25, 2026 • 1 adult

    Had a great trip with Sea Skipper. The captain picked us up from our guesthouse in Diani and drove us to Mombasa where we went out with his crew. I took my wife who has never been out in the ocean. Waves were choppier than we expected getting out there but the crew did a great job navigating. We ended up getting a Sailfish which was a bucket list experience for me. Amazing!

    Perfect Trip!

    Full Day Trip on March 31, 2026 • 4 adults

    We decide to do a fishing trip spontaneously. After we booked, Captain Suheil Haroon contact me to organise everything and ask what fish we want to catch. After 2 hours on the boat, both of us got our target fish. But the highlight comes later. We catch a big Sailfish while troling. The Crew was really nice and take care of us the whole day. Another good point is the fishing gear. The rods and reels were Shimono tackle. So everything was perfect and we enjoy our perfect trip. Thanks to the Captain and the Crew.

    Wonderfull trip and great fish

    Full Day Trip on March 25, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had a wonderfull day with Captain Suheil and his crew. Two out of three in our group had no fishing experience, and the Crew took good care of them and explained everything in Detail. We caught four Mahi Mahi and could have even gone for more, but due to a little sea sickness of one person we decided for an early end. The fish were gutted and prepaired for our chef to cook, and the crew supported us fotos and videos. Great trip that we will for sure book again!
