Deep sea fishing
Curaçao is the largest of the ABC Islands and one of the best places in the Caribbean to enjoy a deep sea fishing trip. Anyone who thought that Curaçao is only good for sunbathing, diving, and sightseeing, is mistaken. Ask any angler who has enjoyed a fishing trip on Curaçao to tell you all about it, and you’ll only hear wonderful stories about their experience.
Year-round catches of blue marlin and sailfish
The rich waters surrounding Curaçao are full of fish. That’s partly due to the country’s emphasis on conservation. Unlike other Caribbean islands, the country’s commercial fleets comply with European standards.
But that’s not all that makes Curaçao such a great place for a deep sea fishing trip. As a fishing fan vacationing in the Caribbean, Curaçao is also a great choice because:
You can find fish like blue marlin, white marlin, and sailfish in the rich waters all year round. No matter when you travel to the island, you can always look forward to a wonderful fishing trip.
The island enjoys an instant drop-off into deep waters. This means that we only have to take you about a mile from land to catch fish like billfish, great barracuda, mahi-mahi, bull shark, wahoo, Atlantic bonito, yellowfin tuna and more.
The island is located outside the main hurricane belt, which means you can safely book your fishing trip during the late summer months.
Fish species to encounter during your fishing trips on Curaçao
As we mentioned before, Curaçao is unique because there are so many fish species that can be found in the waters all year round. Among them are the blue marlin, the white marlin, and sailfish. You can find most of them in fall and winter, though, when you can also find a lot of billfish. The peak of tuna season is in spring and early summer, right after the peak of billfish season ends. The numbers and seasons vary a bit every year, but most species can be found in the waters all year round.
In the winter months, the wahoo is a popular fish to catch. The locals call them Mula and there are large numbers of them to be found swarming around the island. The mahi-mahi can also be found in the waters around Curaçao and are loved by many. If you want to catch them, the Caribbean island is the perfect destination for your fishing vacation.
The best fishing spots around the island
Some of the best fishing spots can be found on the far east and northern shore of the island. Of course, our captain knows every inch of these waters. He knows exactly where to take you to make the most of your day on the water. Another great spot can be found near Klein Curaçao; a tiny islet 20 miles southeast of Willemstad.
