The waters around Phuket offer varied fishing all year round. On this private half-day trip the captain takes you to the rocky banks and reefs around the southern islands, such as Koh Racha or Koh Kai, where bottom species gather.
What the trip includes
- Private boat with captain and crew.
- Basic tackle, bait and ice.
- Fuel for the standard route.
- Fresh water and storage for your catch.
Typical catches are snapper, grouper, emperor and coral trout. If you are after pelagic species such as tuna, wahoo or sailfish, a full-day trolling option is available.
Who it is for
Families and groups of friends, with or without experience. The crew rigs the tackle and helps land the fish.
What to bring
Cap, polarised sunglasses, sunscreen, light clothes and seasickness remedies if you need them.
Best time: November to April, with calm seas. During the monsoon fishing moves to more sheltered areas.
