Summary

Description
English: Traditionally Maldivians, as masters of the sea, used small dhonis and trawled outside the atoll enclosure reef for big game such as sailfish, swordfish, marlin, wahoo, barracuda, yellowfin tuna and other game. However modern speedboats equipped for western style big game fishing are also available now for hire in many resorts.

Since the Maldives practices a strong conservation policy, the use of harpoon guns and hunting of marine mammals such as whales and dolphins and large fishes like the whale shark is strictly prohibited.

All resorts provide facilities for big game fishing. You don’t have to be expert in fishing, the crew of the boats are very adept at the art of fishing and will advice you on all aspects of making a good and fun catch.
