You really fancy a trip but its full? Not to worry. Please also get in touch for any specific trip requests, shared or private and we will always do our best to accommodate you. We also operate a dedicated WhatsApp group for overseas trips, as part of our fishing community. If you are interested in joining this group, please get in touch via WhatsApp (+971586388625), telling us a little bit about yourself and your angling background.
How it works
If you are interested in booking a trip, either shared or private, please get in touch.
We will create a shared WhatsApp group with the charter/captain directly and help you organise your trip.
To secure your trip, you will need to pay a 50% deposit (we have different payment options for this), the remainder to be paid cash directly to the charter/captain
In most cases you should book accommodation yourself directly. We have recommended accommodation options. In some cases, some charters can also include accommodation and transfers for you, or we can arrange.
Note: We do not provide any form of insurance. You are responsible for your own travel insurance. We are not to be held liable for any incidents during trips of any nature. Charters may have insurance for their activities.
