With a remarkable variety of fish species to be found and the pristine beauty of these islands, it is almost guaranteed that the trips out on the water will all be memorable.

Deep Sea Fishing

Deep sea fishing is one of the most popular activities to do when fishing Turks and Caicos. With a dramatic drop off just a short distance from the shore, these are perfect conditions to catch big game fish. From around the world, anglers come here to chase marlin, sailfish, wahoo, tuna… you name it. Anyone who loves sportfishing will want to attempt to catch one of these strong fish.

In Turks and Caicos, there are many professional fishing charters with the most modern technology so you have an excellent day out on the water. Have an experienced captain take you to the best fishing spots in your area and enjoy the opportunity to reel in some truly impressive catches, whatever your half day or full day excursion. Those looking for a little adventure will have to fish the deep waters.

Bonefishing on the Flats

For something a little more challenging, try bone fishing, the most commonly fished type of fishing tied to Turks and Caicos. Stalking bonefish – notoriously speedy and elusive – is easy to do as the islands’ flats are shallow. Bone fishing is usually caught on light tackle or fly fishing gear and is not living recklessly. When you are doing bone fishing you are often tracking and trying to cast at these silver ghost like fish.

Turks and Caicos is one of the world's premier bone fishing destinations, and local guides are true experts at the flats. Having done so with their help, it does provide even the novice angler the thrill of hooking a bonefish and watching it dash through the shallows. The fishing is the peaceful, skill based, and thoroughly rewarding way to approach fishing the islands, and explore their natural beauty.

Reef and Bottom Fishing

Reef and bottom fishing is great for families or anglers who prefer a more laid back angling experience. Smaller fish, such as snapper, grouper and barracuda, live on the coral reefs that surround the islands. Most of the time these trips are in calmer, shallower waters than the deep outlet areas, making this a good way for beginners and children to get into fishing Turks and Caicos.

A few hours trip onto a Reef Fishing trip gives the perfect chance to catch a lot of different varieties of fish species. Furthermore, it's a great way to get great views of the fjords, coastal landscape and overall sweeping views of surrounding islands at many of these fishing spots.

They boast diverse marine environments, experienced guides and unbeatable fishing opportunities for Anglers who are after adventure WITH some relaxation.
