Overnight 34 Hours Fishing Trip on 53ft Boat in Rodrigues Full Description

The boat departs at 08:00 from Port Mathurin for a thrilling adventure at sea: two days of heart-stirring fishing and a nomadic night at sea. Night fishing is an experience filled with emotions.

During this trip, you will sail for more than 6 hours to the outer sea where you can find a greater variety of fish species in abundant numbers.

With a maximum of 5 participants, you will enjoy the boat exclusively for yourselves accompanied by two very experienced fishermen known by the locals as the Gods of the Rodriguan waters.

As part of the trip, you will discover a wide range of fish species within a few miles of the port (ditto rate for 2 days/ 1 night on the East Bench). Be warned, some ‘fishing fights’ can last for monstrous hours!

During the night, the boat will stop at sea for the night stay. It is one unique opportunity to feel the rhythm of the waves while you doze away from the tumultuous landlife.

The East Bench - Located 50 miles east, there is a huge structure offering more than 2000 meters of altitude. This half ‘Mont Blanc submarine’ is spread over an area of 100 km2. Peaking at 41 meters below the surface, it is a real springboard for the ocean currents which, hitting them, create marvelous upwelling, replacing cold, denser water brought up from the subsurface.

After a memorable time on the deep sea, the boat will drop you back on shore at around 18 00 at Port Mathurin on the second day of the trip.
