Deep Sea Fishing Watamu
The Deep-Sea Fishing Watamu Experience
DEEP SEA FISHING IN KENYA 2024/2025
Outstanding Big Game Fishing in Watamu, Kenya
Fishing charters are 10-hour full day excursions or 5-hour half days, depending on your preference and normally kick off just after sun rise when conditions are calm and often best for an early catch.
The experienced crews are happy to work with beginners and help them through each step on the fishing learning curve or just sit back and watch a master at work in the chair on a big fish. Children interested in fishing are very welcome too.
All conventional tackle is provided (although those fishing on fly should bring their own kit) along with delicious fresh packed lunches from our kitchen and drink.
As soon as you get across Watamu’s protective coral reef you are into some of the best fishing area Kenya has to offer.
The most prolific black marlin fishing in Kenya is in the Indian Ocean off the banks of Watamu. A little further out (approx. 17 miles) you will find the Rips where blue marlin, black marlin, striped marlin and sailfish exist in good numbers.
A large number of sailfish swim ten miles north of Malindi and the Sabaki estuary.
At the right time of year, bringing some amazing fishing, especially for the fly or light line fisherman.
July, August and September are the best times to fish. Within 5 miles of the coast of Watamu there is a good selection of black marlin, sailfish, wahoo, kingfish, and yellowfin tuna.
October, November and December is sailfish season, when the fishing trip will run about 12 miles North off the coast of Malindi.
January, February and March are marlin months with black, blue and striped marlin on the Rips off the coast of Watamu.
February and March is also a good time for broadbill swordfish making the chance of a fantasy catch a real possibility.
