This private fishing trip departs early in the morning from Limassol Marina on the Saver 330, the larger of the two boats available for these private trips. It suits up to seven guests and is most comfortable with a group of six, with the whole boat reserved for the party that books it.
The run out to the Akrotiri fishing grounds takes about thirty to forty minutes. Captains with ten to twenty years on these waters lead the trip, and a fleet of more than twenty crews shares where the fish are through a live chat, so the boat can head for grounds that are producing on the day.
Trolling lures and spinning rods are provided, and drinks are included on board. These waters produce different species through the year: tuna from June to August, mahi-mahi from August to October, mackerel from July to October, trapsalo from August to November, squid from November to February, and bottom fish all year round. Cyprus limits catches to three tuna per boat.
The catch can be taken home. The captain decides on the day whether conditions allow the boat to go out, and a trip can be postponed for bad weather.
Children are welcome on board, and the larger group size suits families or groups of friends fishing together. Beginners are taught as they go, so no previous fishing experience is needed. Guests who are prone to seasickness are advised to take tablets before departure, and summer casual clothing is recommended.
