Captain Joao and the guys on board made it a day to remember for the rest of our lives. We went out for white marlin in one of the toughest months of the season and we came back with one caught (20/25KG), one fish lost, saw 50+ dolphins and 2/3 pilot whales. Truly great morning out. We had a lovely breakfast laid on for us on arrival that all of us enjoyed. The boat had more than enough cold drinks of every type for us. They were all very knowledgable and spoke great English...

Dear Henry, thank you for understanding our job, it’s a requirement on Ocean Fun and Fishing to know all about Ria Formosa and the sea around us as the fishing in Portugal… explain to the anglers what is going on here, what you can fish or what you don’t and the penalties for fishing illegally. The kids/young adults are our future and it’s a great pleasure to have them on board and always do what is on our power to make the experience memorable, as always we’ll be ready to welcome... More

We had an absolutely amazing morning out on the water with Captain João and his fantastic team in Olhão, Algarve. Our group of six—mostly young adults—had such a fun and memorable experience. The crew were warm, professional, and made us feel welcome from the moment we stepped on board. The fishing itself was great—we caught plenty of fish and had lots of laughs along the way. Captain João shared his local knowledge and really made the trip feel personal and special. The... More

My son and brother inlaw wanted to fish offshore in the Algarve, I can’t say enough about Joao and his crew. The crew and captain were a class act and very friendly.
