Zanzibar Deep Sea Fishing Tour Detailed Itinerary

Your large twin-engine craft boat departs from Zanzibar - Ras Nungwi at 0630 hours. Fishing Zanzibar is located in Nungwi, a fishing village on the north-western tip of Zanzibar Island where the fishing grounds of Zanzibar, Pemba and the famous Pemba Channel are not even a stone's throw away. Fishing is by trolling a combination of lures or natural dead baits (Ballyhoo or strips) or live bait. Billfish such as striped, black and blue marlin as well as the acrobatic and dazzling sailfish and elusive spearfish abound in these crystal waters. Yellow fin tuna, Dorado, Wahoo, Barracuda, Kingfish (Trevally), King & Queen Mackerel and the lesser game fish such as Bonito tuna, Skipjack tuna and Rainbow Runner provide endless hours of adrenalin filled game fishing action out on the water.

 

African Spice Safaris uses a local company who are members of the International Game Fish Association and actively encourage a catch and release policy of all billfish and sharks unless they are likely to be East Africa, all Africa, World record fish or the skipper believes the fish is unlikely to survive release. With Leven bank just 5 miles north of Nungwi and the drop-offs and deep blue water east of Mnemba Island about 12 miles east, the well equipped fishing boats and professional crews will have you in the mix in no time!

 

The boats are available for half day or full day charters and night fishing trip for broadbill, the “gladiator of the sea”, can be arranged and will certainly test your skills as an angler.

 

Boats are fitted with a full electronics package i.e. GPS/Chartplotter, Fishfinder/Sonar, VHF and a Category 1 Safety equipment package. On the fishing side they are fitted with fighting chair, outriggers and downrigger. Rods and reels (Shimano & Daiwa) from 20lb through to 80lb and a full selection of lures are available to guests onboard!
