Just a few miles off the British Virgin Islands the seabed drops to hundreds of metres and the pelagic species appear. On this private half-day sport fishing trip you troll in open water or, if the sea is rough, fish the nearby reefs.
How the trip works
- Morning or afternoon departure from Road Town or Nanny Cay.
- Trolling for wahoo, mahi-mahi, tuna and barracuda.
- Reef fishing as an alternative in rough seas.
- About 4 hours on the water.
Who it is for
Groups of up to 6, from beginners to experienced anglers. The crew rigs the tackle and helps land the fish. Catch-and-release is encouraged for species you won’t eat.

- Sunscreen and water.
- Seasickness medication if needed.
Best time
All year; wahoo peak from October to March and mahi-mahi in spring. Blue marlin season on the North Drop runs June to October.
