Maldives / Sports and Recreations / Fishing

Maldivians have been fishing people since time immemorial. Its no surprise that our resorts can guide you to the best fishing spots around.

Almost all the resorts offer fishing, night fishing being the most popular. A unique Maldivian sport, night fishing provides a quiet, relaxing time under the stars, out at sea, rocking gently to the waves, in addition to the excitement of fishing. In night fishing, the boat is anchored at a reef just before sunset. Lines are tethered with hooks and sinkers and dropped over board. The favorite catch is the red snapper. Many resorts also organize morning fishing and big game fishing. Morning fishing, like big-game fishing involves trolling outside the atoll, usually along the outer atoll reef.
