Where we fish

Shelf and FADs · 1.5–2.5 hours

The shelf drop-off and fish aggregating devices. This is where you go for sailfish.

We don’t fish in marine national parks or sanctuaries: Similan, Surin, Phi Phi, Koh Rok, Hin Daeng, Shark Point. That’s Thai law, and it protects you.

Frequently asked questions

Is this legal? I’ve heard about arrests for fishing.

Yes, and it’s our core principle. Tours are run by a licensed operator, with a licensed Thai guide on board and boats holding Marine Department permits. We don’t fish in marine national parks (Similan, Surin, Phi Phi, Koh Rok, Hin Daeng) or marine sanctuaries: fishing there is prohibited by law.

How do I pay?

A 30% deposit secures your booking. We accept international cards, bank transfer or company invoice, USDT, and cash in THB or USD on site. The balance is paid on the day of the trip. Invoice and confirmation in English.

What if there’s a storm?

The captain decides whether to go out based on the Thai Meteorological Department forecast. If a trip is canceled because of weather, you get free rescheduling or a full refund of your deposit. In monsoon season we suggest sheltered spots or freshwater in advance.

I get seasick. Will this work for me?

Choose November to April, a private half-day trip and a boat with a wide hull. We’ll plan a route with short runs. For the most sensitive, there are freshwater lakes, where there is no swell at all.
