Book your next trip with Dassen Island Fishing Charters and find out what makes the fishing in Cape Town so unique. We hold the record for the biggest Tuna caught in the country. A 138.6 kg Big-eye Tuna. 21/5/2026

All fish caught is equally shared, no fish is sold (It's illegal to sell your catch).

These waters are known for Yellowtail Amberjack, Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, Skipjack Tuna, Longtail Tuna, Bluefin Tuna, Blackfin Tuna, Bigeye Tuna, Snoek, Skipjack, Black Marlin, Striped Marlin, and more – with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some.

A few items to bring include bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
