The thrill of big game fishing
Restless for adventure? This is your chance: step aboard our catamaran and fish like a pro in Ponza!
During the October weekends and the All Saints’ holiday, join us for a three-day offshore fishing cruise dedicated to the top predators of the Mediterranean: bluefin tuna, mahi-mahi, bonito, barracuda, and amberjack.
A professional fisherman, specialized in advanced techniques such as trolling, will guide you through the secrets of big game fishing and the adrenaline of a real catch, in the wild waters off Ponza and Palmarola.
All rods, reels and lures are provided on board—just bring your passion and the drive to challenge the sea. Early-morning and sunset sessions will be the highlights, while the rest of the day you can enjoy sailing, swimming, and relaxing among pristine bays and coves, far from the summer crowds.
The Pontine Archipelago
Off the Gulf of Gaeta lies one of Italy’s best-kept secrets: six islands framed by dramatic cliffs, hidden coves, and pastel-colored villages that feel lost in time.
Ponza offers iconic beaches such as Chiaia di Luna, Lucia Rosa—famous for its sunsets—and Cala Fèola with its natural pools.
Palmarola, a protected nature reserve and often named among the most beautiful islands in the world, fascinates with its untouched landscape and wild coastline.

You’ll be guided by an experienced fisherman with years of sportfishing expertise, specialized in catching pelagic species such as tuna, mahi-mahi, and spearfish.
