The boat and crew were awesome. I have a disability and carry an Oxygen machine the crew and capt were very accommodating to our needs. My wife has never fished before, she really enjoyed the experience as the crew took time to teach her. They told us exactly what they were doing and explaning why. I have been on other fishing trip were the crew just stay quite until you hook sometging. We saw humpback whales and to top the amazing day we caught 17 tuna’s.

I went to Mauritius to fish and the airline misplaced my rods for the first 10 days of my trip 2 week trip but thanks to Capt Antonio and his crew and the Maranatha my fishing experience wasn’t a total right off.  Capt Antonio was very quick to reply to emails and was able to get us out for a 3/4 day trip.  Two of the people I meet from my resort had never been deep sea fishing before, but thanks to the crew we were able to get them into the chair and land some dorado.  I have fished almost everywhere I have traveled and I have to say that the crew were top notch and were constantly searching the horizon for birds and signs of fish activity.  On our way out Capt Antonio noticed a pod of whales so he also took the opportunity to try and get us as close as he could so that we could get some great pictures to just add to the experience.  I have to say that you never know what you might catch or if you will catch anything but the crew and Capt. Antonio will try what ever they can to put you onto fish vs some boats that might just swap out a lure or two.

Came aboard at 7am ,the boat was perfect and ready for fishing. Within 10minutes of leaving the beach the lures went out,within the hour we’d caught 3 Bonito, within the next hour 1 skip Jack tuna. The captain was constantly looking for the fish and soon got us into a couple of large tuna. Two weighing 30lbs+, went a bit quiet for a little while,but was enjoying the sun and view of the south coast. Plenty of food and drink on board to keep us going. After a bite to eat my wife caught another large tuna as did I. Finishing off the day with yet another skip Jack. Great experience, fantastic day, would 100% recommend these guys, very friendly and know the water. We had also looked at others on the island but kept coming back to maranatha big game fishing and I’m glad we did! We’ll never forget this experience,thanks guys!

Me and my 9 year old son had a 3/4 of a day trip on a beautiful sunny day.
I’ve been on fishing trips before in Mauritius where the crew don’t interact and you become a complete passenger. But this trip with captain Antonio and his son was the opposite, they explained evey tackle change and made you feel completely involved in the whole day. Trolling we caught 7 Bonitos and 2 yellow fin tuna (up to about 6lbs) then the crew decided to swich to a live bait - which was a great call as it was soon taken by a huge marlin which was an 11/10 on the adrenalin scale! Unfortunately it jumped and spat the hook, but we guessed it to be 400lbs.
An amazing day all round and I would 100% book the Maranantha on our next visit here, thank you boys.

Had a great day out yesterday on the boat with Antonio his son Luciano and France. As the captain said in his report it was a tough morning with very little signs of feeding fish and no bites. A Marlin hit one of the lures without a word of warning late on in the trip but spat the hook unfortunately!

All was quiet again beiefly untill three sailfish were on the hunt and started attacking our lures, two were hooked and one was landed so tough but a great result in the end.

Antonio and his crew were very professional, knowledgable and nice friendly guys who i would recommend to anyone wanting to fish in Mauritius!

The next question is when can we go again?!
