7 Best Places On The Planet For A Deep Sea Fishing Yacht Charter

For many, the ideal vacation incorporates new experiences, hours of relaxation and the chance to indulge in hobbies that you otherwise have no time to do, which is why a fishing yacht charter ticks all the right boxes.

Fishing is one of the oldest hobbies in the world, dating back to the 1400s. It is also one of the most popular, frequently appearing just after reading and travelling in the list of today's top ten preferred hobbies. Whether fishing for food or just for fun, the sport is the perfect way to relax and enjoy the outdoors.

It's also the perfect sport to tie in with a yachting holiday, with specialised fishing yacht charters becoming increasingly sought after by a discerning clientele.

Where to head on a deep-sea fishing yacht charter

Fishing is a sport that can be undertaken in waters all over the world. So what makes deep sea fishing different?

Deep-sea fishing just means that anglers need to travel out further into the ocean, looking for a water depth of at least 30 metres. And how better to travel to these spots than by superyacht?

A fishing yacht charter enables clients to travel to some of the biggest fishing destinations on their own terms, in complete luxury, on vessels decked out with all the right fishing equipment. But where are the best places to head?

Below is our guide to the top 7 best deep-sea fishing spots on the planet:

 

 

Florida Keys, USA

A popular place to find fishing yachts for charter, this chain of islands is an excellent place to head if you are hoping to get some serious deep-sea fishing experience under your belt. With the Gulf of Mexico on one side and the Florida strait on the other, the waters of Florida Keys are home to Kingfish, Wahoo, Dolphin, Tuna, Cobia, Snapper, Grouper, Barracuda, Sailfish, Sharks, Blue and White Marlins and Jacks.

 

 

 

 

Bermuda

Another top spot for Blue Marlin is Bermuda. Indeed, no other country has won the World Cup Blue Marlin Championship as often as Bermuda, which has claimed first prize eight times in 27 years. For family members that are not so into fishing, the country also has fantastic beaches, excellent diving and some first-class golf courses.

 

 

 

 

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

The Caribbean Sea surrounding the island of Costa Rica is frequented by an abundance of species such as the Mackerel, Dorado, Jack Crevalle, Tarpon and Tripletail, while the side of the island which sits on the Pacific Ocean is teeming with Marlin, Tuna, Roosterfish, Wahoo and the Snook.

 

 

 

 

Limon and Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Spanning some 1,010-hectares, City of Pearl is set to be one of the largest land extension projects the world has ever seen. Designed as an international destination, construction is set to span two decades on this mixed-use development which will include a business district, retail outlets, residential housing, waterfront promenade, golf course, driverless railway system, water taxi network, marina, and ample open spaces. This new development will also be eco-friendly, relying on solar and tidal energy for its power consumption, alongside cutting-edge artificial intelligence which will ensure this new city operates at the most optimal level at all times.

 

 

 

Phuket, Thailand

Heading east on a fishing yacht charter will take you to Phuket, in Thailand. Here the Andaman Sea is home to a vast selection of fish species including Marlin, Tuna, Queenfish, Giant Trevally, Sea Bass, Carp, Catfish and Barbs. The ideal period to explore these waters on a deep-sea fishing yacht is during July and October.
