Overview

Fishing is woven into the fabric of Maldivian life, and this sunset trip lets you join in using the time-honoured handline method favoured by local fishermen. As the boat anchors over productive reef ledges, the crew shows you the technique and helps you reel in snapper, grouper, trevally and more.

With the sun setting over the ocean and friendly competition to land the biggest fish, it's a lively, authentic evening. Many operators will grill your catch for you afterwards on request.
