The Indian Ocean off Kenya\u2019s coast is a well-known game fishing area, and a private charter from Mombasa lets you spend a morning or a full day on the water with a local skipper and crew. The trip suits anglers who want a serious day of fishing as well as families and groups who simply want to try it.<\/p>\n
You are collected from your hotel early in the morning and taken to the boat. The skipper chooses where to fish based on the tide, wind and what has been biting, and the crew set up the lines and help throughout. On a half-day trip you are back by midday; on a full-day trip the boat stays out longer and there is a break for lunch. Then you are returned to your hotel.<\/p>\n
Depending on the season, catches can include sailfish, kingfish, tuna, barracuda and other reef and open-water fish. Game fish such as billfish are usually released; ask the skipper about keeping fish for the table. Nothing is guaranteed, and the quality of the fishing varies with the season and weather.<\/p>\n
The sea can be rough on windy days, so take seasickness tablets if you are prone to it, and bring sun protection, a hat and a light waterproof layer. Tell us your experience level and what you want to catch so we match the boat and the crew.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
