Fishing in Azores

Sitting a thousand miles east of Portugal’s mainland in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean, the Azores Islands may seem a bit out there as a vacation spot. But if you’re looking for red-hot angling action, there are few better places on earth. Azores fishing charters will deliver everything you’ve ever dreamed of. From exciting reef fish to grander Marlin, everything is possible.
 
Starting with reef fish, you’ll have a wealth of targets at your disposal along these rocky bottoms. Oversized Bluefish, Amberjack, Seabream. Barracuda, Parrotfish, and Amberjack are all available. There’s even freshwater fish on offer if you head inland, with Rainbow Trout, Carp, Pike, and Perch starring in the stunning mountainous lakes and streams. 
 
But the real exciting action takes place offshore. You won’t have to venture far, as you’re already out in the heart of the Atlantic. Within just a few minutes from shore, you could be going after Blue and White Marlin, Yellowfin, Bigeye, and massive Bluefin Tuna, along with a range of Sharks. 
 
The beauty of fishing in this part of the world is that you’ll be on the fish in no time. Trips as short as 4 hours can give you a chance at each of the prized species here. However, if you’re intent on getting a Billfish “Grand Slam” or want to land that fish of a lifetime, consider spending at least a full day aboard your Azores fishing charter. 

 

Rules & Regulations

You don’t need a fishing license aboard a registered Azores fishing charter boat. But if you plan on fishing from shore or in freshwater, you’ll need a Sportfishing License or an Inland Waters Fishing License. These can be problematic to obtain as a foreigner, so be sure to look into it before buying that extra hold baggage for your fishing gear.

Azores Fishing Seasons

January

Kick off the year with awesome angling. This may not be the height of the Azores fishing calendar, but you can still catch some huge Albacore, Amberjack, Grouper, and Sharks.

February

Even in the coldest month of the year, you’ll rarely see your breath in the Azores. What you will see are a lot of big Amberjack, Barracuda, Seabream, Albacore, and Sharks!

March

Albacore high season rages on and the reefs are always full of fish. You can also catch spring season Bluefin Tuna this time of year if you’re after a real monster.

April

April is still low tourist season in the Azores, meaning more water for you to enjoy! This is the peak of the spring Bluefin season, and a great time to spot whales while you’re fishing.

May

Temperatures rise into the high 60s in May, and the fishing really starts to heat up, too. Mako Sharks are on fire this time of year, and the first of the White Marlin are showing up offshore.

June

The deep sea fishing Azores anglers look forward to all year is here, with Bigeye Tuna, Blue and White Marlin, Longbill Spearfish, and more. The reefs are just as active, with tons of Triggerfish and Amberjack.

July

Visitors to Sao Jorge Island can enjoy a week of concerts and celebrations at the Velas Cultural Week. Everyone else can enjoy epic Billfish and Tuna fishing!

August

Faial Island celebrates the Week Of the Sea, a musical and cultural event in honor of the ocean. It’s a great time to celebrate it–this is the peak of the Azores Marlin fishing season!

September

Blue and White Marlin, Bigeye, Bluefin, and Yellowfin Tuna, Longbill Spearfish, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi–and that’s just the bluewater bite! You won’t be short of action however you fish in September.

October

Most of the summer crowds have disappeared by October, but the water is as active as ever! This is a great time of year to catch huge fish without picking up a big tab at the end of the day.

November

The last few Blue Marlin and Bluefin Tuna are still around in November, and the reefs are bursting with Amberjack and Grouper. Take your pick and head out for an exciting charter.

December

Temperatures are still in the mid-60s throughout most of December. Visit during the holiday season, and you can reel in some monster bottom fish for a real festive feast.
