Fishing in Watamu

Watamu, nestled along Kenya's stunning coastline, has earned international recognition as a premier big game fishing destination on the East African coast. This tropical paradise attracts serious anglers and hobbyists alike with its rich marine ecosystem and exceptional fishing opportunities year-round.

The waters off Watamu are renowned for hosting some of the world's most sought-after large game fish. Anglers can target an impressive variety of billfish, including broadbill swordfish, black marlin, blue marlin, striped marlin, shortbill spearfish, and sailfish. In fact, Watamu's fishing is so spectacular that it's possible to catch multiple species of billfish in a single day—an achievement known as a "fantasy slam."

From December through March, the iconic marlins arrive in the area, with black marlin found closer to shore and blue marlin in deeper waters among the tuna shoals from mid-February. The south-facing ledge at Watamu Banks between Malindi and Watamu offers exceptional live bait fishing for giant trevally, kingfish, large yellowfin tuna, and wahoo.

Watamu's underwater topography, featuring natural underwater mountains, creates the perfect environment that attracts both baitfish and predators. This remarkable setting has made Watamu the chosen location for prestigious fishing competitions, including ILTTA World Championships and various televised tournaments.

Fishing charters in Watamu typically operate well-equipped deep-sea vessels with conventional tackle, and experienced captains offer instruction for beginners, making it an enjoyable experience for anglers of all skill levels. Many charters support important tag and release programs that ensure the sustainability of these magnificent species for generations to come.
