Fishing isn't just what we do—it's what we love. Growing up on the water, I developed a passion for fishing that became a lifelong pursuit. Years spent exploring our local waters, refining techniques, and understanding our target species have given us the experience to create unforgettable days on the ocean. Together with my trusted captain, Jo, and first mate, Timotée, we're committed to providing a safe, friendly, and professional experience for anglers of all skill levels. Whether it's your first fishing trip, a family adventure, or you're chasing your next trophy catch, we'll tailor the day to give you the best chance of success. We believe a great charter is about more than just catching fish. it's about sharing knowledge, enjoying the adventure, and creating memories that last long after the lines are reeled in and enjoying breathtaking sunrises over the ocean, feeling the fresh sea breeze, and friends, and making memories that last a lifetime. Using quality equipment, local knowledge, and plenty of passion, we'll work hard to put you on the fish while ensuring you enjoy every moment on the water. From crystal-clear seas and exciting strikes to incredible catches and unforgettable scenery, we want every guest to leave with amazing photos, lasting memories, and a smile.

Thank you so much, Eddie and Sara, for taking the time to leave us such an incredible review! 🙏💙🎣 It was an absolute pleasure having you both on board with us. We’re especially happy that we could help make your dream of landing a trophy Yellowfin Tuna a reality — an incredible 140 lb fish! 🔥🐟💪 That day certainly tested us with changing weather and conditions, but this is exactly what offshore fishing is about. We constantly adapted our tactics, changed locations, followed the bird activity and kept searching until we found the right opportunity. Seeing that fish come aboard after all the hard work was an unforgettable moment for the whole Salty Team! 🎣🔥 We’re also very sorry to hear that Sara was feeling unwell during the trip, and we truly appreciate that despite that, you still enjoyed the experience and described it as one of your best days ever. ❤️ Thank you for trusting Captain Yoan, Joe and the Salty Team Mauritius crew with such a special fishing adventure. Reviews like yours mean a lot to our team and motivate us to keep giving every guest our absolute best. 140 lb Yellowfin Tuna — DREAM ACHIEVED! 🐟🔥 We hope to welcome you back to Mauritius one day for another unforgettable battle offshore! Tight lines and big fish always! 🎣💙🇲🇺 — Captain Yoan & Salty Team Mauritius

Fantastic Fishing Experience
Half-day big game fishing trip on August 21, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child
We had an amazing experience with Salty Team Fishing Charter! Our first 7-hour fishing trip unfortunately ended without a catch, but Captain Yoan went above and beyond and offered us an afternoon fishing trip at no extra cost. It was absolutely worth it — we ended up catching 3 beautiful dorado! 🎣🐟 Captain Yoan was fantastic throughout: friendly, professional and genuinely committed to making sure we had a great experience. His gesture after our unsuccessful first trip really showed how much he cares about his customers. We couldn't have asked for a better outcome and would highly recommend Salty Team Fishing Charter to anyone looking for a great fishing experience in Mauritius. Thanks again, Captain Yoan and your crew! We'll definitely be back, maybe next time in the summer months? 🎣🇲🇺

Thank you so much, Ben, for this incredible review and for the 5-star rating! 🙏⭐️ It was an absolute pleasure having you and your family onboard. We truly appreciate your kind words about our crew and, most importantly, your understanding that fishing doesn’t always go according to plan. 🎣🌊 After the first trip didn’t produce a catch, we simply couldn’t let you leave Mauritius without another chance. We were delighted to have you back out with us and to see those 3 beautiful dorado come onboard! 🐟🐟🐟 That moment made it all worthwhile. For us, it’s not only about catching fish — it’s about giving our guests the best possible experience and doing everything we can to make their fishing adventure memorable. Thank you again for your trust, your great attitude and your recommendation. We’ll be very happy to welcome you back to Mauritius, and hopefully next time during the summer months for some big-game action! 🎣🔥 Tight lines and see you again soon, Ben! 🤝🇲🇺 Captain Yoan & the Salty Team Mauritius crew

Great first fishing experience！
5 Hour big game fishing trip on August 10, 2026 • 2 adults
This was my first-ever fishing experience, even including freshwater fishing, and it was absolutely amazing! We booked a 5-hour fishing trip and caught 8 fish in total. The captain and crew told us what kinds of fish we would likely catch, and they were spot on! I caught yellowfin tuna, skipjack tuna, and a mahi-mahi over 1 meter long! The captain also shared some great tips on how to find the fish and, more importantly, how to fight and land them. As a first-time angler, I really appreciated his patience and guidance. I was finally able to land the mahi-mahi myself! The crew were also incredibly helpful after the catch. They cleaned and filleted the yellowfin tuna for me and packed the fillets on ice, which was a really nice touch. I took the fish home, enjoyed some delicious fried fish, and even shared it with my neighbors. An unforgettable experience from start to finish. Highly recommended, especially for first-time anglers!

A day to remember
Half-day big game fishing trip on May 31, 2026 • 1 adult
Booked a half day with Yoan and his crew and it was simply amazing. The morning bite was a bit slow but it did not last very long. We caught 2 skipjack tuna shortly after sunrise and a few hours later the action skyrocketed! Chasing tuna and dorado from buoys to groups of baitfish the Captain Joe made sure something would take the line. We caught 2 lovely yellowfin tuna and 1 big bull Dorado! This was my first deep sea fishing experience in a long time and the Salty Crew delivered! If you want to get your best chance at catching game fish, look no further, Yoans Salty Crew are the way to go.

Thank you so much, Sean! It was a pleasure having you on board with us. We’re delighted that your first deep-sea fishing trip in a long time turned into such a memorable adventure. Despite a slow start, the ocean rewarded us with some fantastic action, and we're glad you enjoyed chasing tuna and dorado around the bait schools. Congratulations again on your yellowfin tuna and beautiful bull dorado! 🎣🐟 On behalf of Captain Yoan, Captain Joe, and the entire Salty Team crew, thank you for your trust and kind words. We look forward to welcoming you back to Mauritius for another unforgettable day on the water. Tight lines and see you again soon! **Captain Yoan & The Salty Team Mauritius 🇲🇺** 🎣🌊

First big game fishing trip great experience
Half-day big game fishing trip on April 29, 2026 • 1 adult
From start to finish Captain Yoan was great, started with a really early pickup by Yoan from my hotel down to the beach and the boat. Introduced to Joe the captain for the day and his mate and started the trip in the dark heading a couple of miles out to pick up live bait. After that we tried various spots trolling with lures and live bait. Unfortunately at this time of the season the tuna are a bit more sparse, this didn’t deter the team and they tried a few spots further out and keeping an eye out for birds feeding on baitfish, one of these was successful and managed a nice skipjack tuna, small but really strong fighter. After some time Joe decided to try closer inshore (a couple of miles out) and his knowledge and experience paid off. We hit a group of Mahi Mahi and within minutes had fish on. Hectic pace with fish on 3 rods at once but the crew kept pretty calm and over the next 50 minutes or so I was able to land 3 beautiful fighting Dorado. To be fair I hadn’t expected it to be that tiring but afterwards my arms ached from the fight. Once we had landed the fish it went very quite and as time was nearly up headed to shore where Captain Yoan was waiting, The team is very knowledgeable, friendly and determined that every guest gets a chance to catch fish even when it doesn’t look promising so I would recommend them 100%, as a first time trying this sport it was brilliant, there are quite bits but when you get a fish it really makes the wait worthwhile, hope that I can return to this beautiful country in the future and will definitely be booking again with Salty team when I return.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed review—we really appreciate it! We’re thrilled to hear your first big game fishing experience with Salty Team Fishing Charter was such a memorable one. It’s great to know Captain Yoan, Joe, and the crew made you feel well taken care of from the early pickup right through to the end of the trip. Fishing conditions can vary, so we’re especially glad the team’s persistence paid off and you got into the mahi mahi action—landing three is no small feat! 💪🎣 Your kind words about the crew’s attitude and determination mean a lot to us. We always aim to make sure every guest has the best possible chance of success, no matter the conditions. We’d love to welcome you back on board when you return to Mauritius—there are always more big catches waiting!
