We will start fishing early in the morning when it is more likely to catch fish. Accompanied by professional fishermen, we will go to wild places where there is always a lot of fish.

If you wish, you can swim, go snorkeling, spearfishing. And also see whales, dolphins, flying rays and turtles. You can take all the fish you catch with you. Our staff will clean it for you on the way home.
