Moorea in French Polynesia is a premier fishing destination, celebrated for its stunning turquoise lagoon and abundant marine life. Anglers can experience diverse fishing adventures, from inshore reef fishing to thrilling offshore big game pursuits. Inshore, the lagoon and reefs teem with species like bluefin trevally, bonefish, snapper, barracuda, and grouper, perfect for light tackle, jigging, or fly fishing.
Offshore, Moorea's deep waters offer world-class big game fishing. Charter boats target blue marlin, yellowfin tuna, wahoo, dorado (mahi-mahi), and powerful dogtooth tuna. These pelagic giants provide exhilarating battles, with charters expertly navigating prime fishing grounds using live bait, trolling, or popping techniques.
The best fishing season runs from October to June, when migratory species are most active. Local captains leverage decades of experience to tailor trips—whether half-day family excursions or full-day trophy hunts. Modern, well-equipped boats include top-tier tackle, safety gear, and licenses for hassle-free adventures.
Beyond the catch, Moorea's dramatic volcanic peaks and coral ecosystems create an unforgettable backdrop. Charters often combine fishing with snorkeling or wildlife spotting, showcasing the island’s natural splendor. With passionate crews dedicated to sustainable practices and memorable experiences, Moorea fishing charters deliver unparalleled Polynesian angling.
