This area is ideal for targeting species such as roosterfish, cubera snapper, African pompano, and bluefin trevally.

These boats are meticulously maintained, cleaned everyday, and kept in the best of shape. All boats are outfitted with top-tier fishing gear, such as Okuma rods and reels, BKK hooks, and a variety of artificial lures, ensuring anglers have the best equipment for their fishing adventures.
