    A fantastic day

    3 Hour Trip (AM) • 6 adults

    The booking of this trip was very easy. We booked it for a visiting family and it turned out to be the highlight of their time in kuwait. Our Captain Al was ever so generous and informative about the various fishing styles and had a vast amount of rods even for the left handed participants. He provided an amazing local breakfast and fruit platter. The drink cabinets were over stocked with a great variety chilled drinks beside the water. We were taken to an island which is half an hour away and were privided snorkeling equipment to see a wonderful selection of Gulf fish, sea creatures and corals. While sitting on the boat on a carefully selected location we caught some fish which we chose to release back in the sea. We even caught a poisonous fish , but our Captain Al was always alert to ensure our safety and he handled it with the highest professionalism. The highlight catch was a 60cm long Barracuda!! Towards the end of trip during the sunset, Captain Al provided us with a beautiful local grill platter. All though the trip he entertained us with great music to keep us in the best party mood. We had such an amazing time — great fun, great food, and great company! Highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for an unforgettable day on the Kuwaiti sea.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much for your wonderful words! 🌊🎣 It was an absolute pleasure having you and your guests on board — I’m thrilled to hear it became the highlight of your stay in Kuwait. We always aim to make every trip a mix of adventure, relaxation, and local flavor, so knowing you enjoyed the fishing, snorkeling, and our Gulf-style meals truly means a lot. That 60 cm barracuda was a great catch — I still remember the excitement! 😄 Hope to see you all again soon for another day of good fishing, good food, and great vibes on the water. Tight lines and calm seas, – Captain Al ⚓️

    Amazing captain

    3 Hour Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    Even though we did not have any luck in catching the fish, we had most amazing time with captain Al who provided absolutely everything what we needed on the boat including food and soft drinks! Boat was also very nice and clean witf full equipment!

    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much, Mario. I really appreciate the kind words and the 5 stars ⭐️ Even though the fish decided to take the day off, I’m very happy to hear you still had a great time on the water. Sometimes the sea gives us fish, sometimes it gives us dolphins and good memories 😄 It was a pleasure having you onboard. You are always welcome back and next time we will try to convince the fish to cooperate. Safe travels and hope to see you again.

    AMAZING TRIP

    Full Day Trip – Island Trip • 5 adults

    Capt Al, from our first interaction, was extremely professional, polite, and incredibly helpful through every single step of our adventure. We did the full day, 8 hr trip and I could not recommend this trip any higher! As far as accommodations, lunch was provided and delicious, dinner was also provided and just as delicious, snorkeling gear was available for all of us, many types of drinks and snacks, anything you could want! We caught several fish, a few of which were cleaned and filleted for us upon our return as we released the others. We even had a moment where we had two fish on at the same time by two different anglers! I cannot think of a single thing I would change about our experience. 10/5 stars. Thanks again Dr. Al!
