Snapper Fishing Tour welcomes you to the stunning waters of Dikwella and Hiriketiya. We are a government-approved, licensed fishing tour operator, so you can enjoy your ocean adventure safely with an experienced local crew. Captain Vidanagamage knows these tides well and will guide you to great fishing, clear snorkeling spots, and the best coastal views.

This all-in-one trip can include fishing, snorkeling and coral viewing, whale watching (seasonal), and sea sightseeing. Depending on conditions and your preference, you may visit Hummanaya the Blow Hole area Kudawella, Blue Beach Island, Hiriketiya Beach, and Pehebiya Beach.

Possible catches (seasonal) include Great Barracuda, Skipjack Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Rusty Jobfish, Gray Triggerfish, Dogtooth Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Blacktail Snapper, Malabar Blood Snapper, Spotted Rose Snapper, Silk Snapper, and more.

We usually troll and bottom fish with light or heavy tackle. Fly fishing may be possible (bring your own fly gear). We provide rods, reels, bait, snorkeling gear (mask/snorkel and fins), life jackets, and full guidance. Complimentary snacks, a soft drink, and bottled water are included.

Meet the boat at convenient points like Nilwella Harbour, Kottagoda Harbour, Kudawella Harbour, or Pehebiya. Kids are welcome (ask in advance about child-sized life jackets). We can coordinate a taxi back to your hotel after the tour (land transport cost paid by the guest). Please book at least 24 hours in advance.

Sehr gute Fishingtour
4 Hour Trip (AM) on March 10, 20262 adults
Wir haben einige Exoten gefangen und da kein Thun beißen wollte, hat der Kapitän die Tour deutlich verlängert. Sehr freundliche Crew und für Essen und kalte Getränke war auch gesorgt.
