THE EXPERIENCE

Fish the coast, not a fixed waypoint.

Conditions along the Namibian coast change quickly. A guided day is about reading the water, choosing the right stretch of coast and adapting the approach rather than promising one “secret spot”.

Target species can include kob/kabeljou, galjoen, kolstert, steenbras and sharks depending on season, location and conditions. Catch results, species and size are never guaranteed.

R2,450 per person · minimum 2 guests. Send your preferred dates and group size to check availability. Group and multi-day discounts may be available.

Best guide I have fished with. Very knowledgeable when it comes to fishing conditions, baits and the best fishing spots. A great guy and very good with kids.

Excellent guide, all the tools, all the goodies and all the food. He accommodated us also for a second day on short notice to go and catch sharks — a fun day. Thanks Willem.

I had the opportunity to spend time with these guys to catch a Bronzie shark and they did not disappoint! Both my friend and I caught a Bronzie.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you book.

Do you guarantee a catch?

No. Fishing depends on conditions, season, location and fish movement. We guide the day and adapt to the coast; we do not guarantee species, fish size or a catch.

Do I need my own fishing gear?

Fishing gear and bait are included in the standard R2,450 guided day. For a separately quoted guide-only arrangement, bring your own vehicle, gear and bait and confirm the details before the day.

Where exactly do we fish?

The exact route is chosen according to conditions and is not published as a fixed secret spot. We confirm meeting and operational details with booked guests.

Are group or multi-day rates available?

They may be. Send us your group size and number of fishing days and we will quote the applicable rate.
