Half Day Trip (AM) on November 27, 20253 adults

Valentine was courteous, helpful and knowledgeable. We caught three varieties of fish. Also he took all my fish off the hook as I was the beginner of the group.

Amazing family experience in a deep blue
Special 5 hour trip for Vera Kelim on July 25, 20254 adults

Valentin and his team were absolutely amazing to have inexperienced tourists on their board! The boat was neat and comfortable, Valentin knows a lot about Varna lake and the sea, showed us how to catch fish in a deep water. We had an unforgettable experience of meeting the sea, waves, sea creatures, Varna lake and a lot of things around. Swimming and fishing was above all expectations. Thank you for this experience for us and our kids. Even 5 y.o. had his chance with a rod.

Capt. Valentin runs trips out of Varna aboard a 28' Stamas sportfishing vessel. These waters are known for many exotic species and he will show you how to catch them. With years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
