    Great experience

    Half day Fishing Trip - 10:00 AM • 2 adults

    Christo’s boat was unusable and he and Ilze had kindly arranged for Henk du Plessis to take us out instead. It was our first experience of deep sea fishing and whilst we only caught one fish, a couta, we had another fish eaten by sharks and a dorado get off. We also enjoyed seeing three whales, a dolphin, and some very big sharks. Henk, a SA representative fisherman, was fantastic and very patient with our inexperience. He was keen to stay out for longer! He and Christo and Ilze arranged for the fish caught by my son to be cooked for our dinner at Sodwana Bay Lodge. What an awesome meal and the best fish I’ve had in over 25 years. A great end to a memorable day. 😀

    Response from Charter operator

    Thank you so much, Rod, for your wonderful review! It was an absolute pleasure having you and your family with us. We’re delighted that, despite the change of boat, you still had such a memorable day on the water and got to experience the incredible marine life that makes Sodwana Bay so special. A big thank you as well for your kind words about Henk—he’ll really appreciate them. We’re also thrilled you enjoyed your fresh couta for dinner! We hope to welcome you back soon for another adventure, and next time we’ll make sure we go after that dorado again! 🎣🐋😊

    We had a fantastic day out with Skylar Blue Fishing Charters! Our skipper, Christo, was excellent—not only is he a highly skilled captain, but he’s also incredibly knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the marine environment. It’s great to fish with someone who cares so much about the ocean. Highly recommended for a top-tier experience!
