“Welcome to Vilankulos & the Bazaruto Archipelago, a remote and incredible year-round fishery & one of the world’s best Giant Black Marlin fishing destinations. With 25 years’ experience in the area, our knowledgeable crew invites you to step aboard one of our fully rigged sport fishers for a fishing experience of a lifetime. We have continuously been Mozambique´s top billfish charter boat and have caught more (1000-pound-plus) Grander Black Marlin than any other crew in Africa. Blue and Striped marlin are found out wide, and the by-catch of other species such as sailfish, wahoo, Yellowfin tuna, dorado, cuda, kingfish, and others makes this an extremely versatile and exciting destination. We cater for experienced and novice anglers alike and, be it heavy tackle Marlin Fishing, light tackle conventional trolling, popping for Gt´s and other species, jigging, spinning and Fly-Fishing, the Archipelago offers prodigious year-round fishing.


And a gallery to let you know what you can be in for…

We fish Bazaruto and Inhaca mainly, but are open to trips abroad – to the usual spots like Ascension Islands, GBR, Cape Verde and Pemba.
