Deep Sea Fishing Tour

The channel between Zanzibar and Pemba in particular, is an internationally renowned site consistently providing first-rate big game fishing opportunities. With large schools of Barracuda, Wahoo, Kingfish and Giant Travelli in the area all year round, and seasonal visits from many other species such as Marlin, big game fishing will be thrilling experience you will never forget!

Three professional deep sea fishing boats are on offer. Joint Venture, Timimi and Suli Suli are all equipped to the highest international safety standards; all our boats are inspected every year by the marine authorities and all have passed every time with flying colours. We also equip them with the latest fishing technology with GPS navigational devices, echo sounders and fish finders. Half and full day charters are available on all the boats and if you would like to do a longer trip then three or five day charters to Pemba, Mafia Island and Latham Island can also be arranged on Joint Venture, which is fully set up for up to five people.

A full set of tackle is provided with Shimano and Penn International rods and reels, spooled with 80lb, 50lb, 30lb or 20lb mono lines. Clients who wish to use their own lighter tackle are welcome (we comply with the IGFA fly fishing regulations). Our experienced skippers and crew have been fishing in these waters for decades, and have specialised in big game fishing for the last 10years. They are always happy to instruct novices and talk anglers through any procedure in the course of reeling in their catch, or just give hints and tips to improve your technique.
