Fishing in Cape Verde

Discover the thrilling world of Cape Verde Fishing Charters, set against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean's rich biodiversity. These islands offer year-round angling adventures, with peak seasons bringing extraordinary opportunities to target prized species like Blue Marlin, Sailfish, and Yellowfin Tuna. The archipelago's unique marine ecosystem supports over 500 fish species, including Wahoo, Dorado, Amberjack, and Barracuda, ensuring every trip delivers action-packed variety.

Cape Verde's volcanic seascape—featuring deep drop-offs, coral reefs, and underwater banks—creates ideal habitats for diverse fishing techniques. Troll open waters for pelagic giants, jig near structures for powerful reef fish, or explore spearfishing in crystal-clear shallows. The nutrient-rich currents attract migratory species like Humpback Whales between January and May, while endangered Loggerhead Turtles nest along the coasts, adding awe-inspiring encounters to your expedition.

Charters operate from key hubs like Sal, Boa Vista, and São Vicente, using well-equipped vessels designed for comfort and performance. Expert crews share generations of local knowledge, guiding you to prime grounds where 10+ Blue Marlin bites daily aren't uncommon during spring and summer. Whether battling pelagics offshore or bottom fishing for Snapper near reefs, Cape Verde combines accessibility with world-class action.

With conservation-focused practices like catch-and-release for Billfish, alongside thriving marine sanctuaries, these charters offer sustainable adventures without compromising excitement. Experience Cape Verde Fishing Charters—where legendary catches meet unmatched ocean wilderness.

    Amazing experience!

    We went on this trip to catch blue Marlin. Not only did captain Luca put us on Blue Marlin, we also caught, sail fish, wahoo, tuna, and skidzak. Captain Luca and Mate Audi were the best. They took care of us for three days on the boat. The boat and equipment was top notch. It was an amazing trip that we want to take again and highly recommend captain Luca and Mate Audi!

    Marlin fishing

    Was an absolut blast, we went marlin fishing and caught one with about 2m length and 100-120kg. Absolutely insane fight! Capitain and Crew are very friendly and explain everything. I 100% suggest you to go catch a marlin with capitain Luca. Absolut MUST as a fisherman.

    Went on a Marlin hunt

    Captain's comms with me leading up to the trip were brilliant, boat was spot on, left on time, and tried so hard to find the marlin, sadly no marlin, but luca took me to catch new species on the way in, and i hooked up yellow fin tuna, groupa and amberjack. fishing is fishing, and it wasnt through lack of trying to find a marlin, i would higly recomend going out on this boat with captain luca. thanks 🤟🏻
