Night fishing is the most popular activity in the Maldives for a reason - it's relaxing, everyone catches fish, and you eat what you catch for dinner. No experience needed.
We anchor over a reef in 20-40m of water as the sun sets. Using simple handlines or light rods with squid and cut bait, you'll target Red Snapper, Grouper, and Emperor that feed actively after dark.
This is the perfect first experience for kids, non-anglers, or anyone who wants a beautiful evening on the water without the intensity of sport fishing. We often see bioluminescence and shooting stars.
Available year-round, every evening.

It's the best trip we run for both. Simple handlines or light rods, anchored on calm water inside the atoll, and everyone catches fish. Kids love it.
Red snapper, grouper, and emperor feed actively after dark over the reef. Expect steady action - several fish per person on a normal night.
That's the point. The crew cleans your catch and can prepare fresh sashimi on board, or take the fillets to your resort - most kitchens will cook a guest's catch.
We pick you up around sunset and fish roughly three hours under the stars. You're back at your resort for a late dinner - often with the dinner in a bag.
Barely - night fishing happens on protected reef inside the atoll and works every month of the year. It's our most weather-proof trip.
