HALF - DAY ZANZIBAR FISHING CHARTER

Our Half-Day Zanzibar Fishing Charter offers the perfect opportunity to escape your hotel and experience a thrilling morning or afternoon of sport fishing! Join us onboard for a few exciting hours of fishing fun in the warm, tropical waters of Zanzibar. Whether you're an experienced angler or a first-timer, this charter is designed for anyone looking to enjoy the thrill of deep-sea fishing.



WHERE DO WE FISH?

During the Half-Day Zanzibar Fishing Charter, we focus on some of the island’s best fishing spots, including Leven Bank, located 6 miles north of Nungwi, the Zanzibar Channel, and the northeast coast of Zanzibar Island. If inshore waters are quiet, we’ll head offshore in search of better fishing grounds, maximizing your chances of a great catch. Our experienced crew will guide you through the entire adventure, ensuring a memorable fishing experience in Zanzibar’s vibrant and diverse waters



FULL - DAY ZANZIBAR FISHING CHARTER

Our Full-Day Zanzibar Game Fishing Charter offers an extended, action-packed experience for both serious anglers and casual fishermen alike. With more time on the water, you’ll have the opportunity to focus on targeting the fish species you’re most interested in. Whether you prefer trolling for marlin, popping for GTs and dogtooth tuna, saltwater fly fishing, or spinning for dorado and king mackerel, this charter lets you immerse yourself in the thrill of deep-sea fishing.


For those who may want a more relaxed experience, this full-day charter also allows plenty of time for other activities. Guests can take breaks from fishing to spot whales and dolphins or anchor near the stunning Mnemba Island Atoll to swim and snorkel in crystal-clear waters. This makes it an ideal outing for friends and family members who want to enjoy the day together, even if they’re not keen on fishing. After a refreshing stop, the fishing action can resume as we head back toward Nungwi.



WHERE DO WE FISH?

During our Full-Day Fishing Charter, we fish in prime areas such as Leven Bank, the southern entrance to the Pemba Channel, the Zanzibar Channel, and around Mnemba Island. The longer duration allows us to venture offshore into deeper waters to target billfish like marlin and sailfish or explore the productive tuna grounds near Pangani. Whether you prefer popping, jigging, or fly fishing, the extra time ensures a truly tailored fishing experience, maximizing your chances of landing the catch of your dreams.
