Port Vila Angelausflüge

Each year the fishing in Port Vila gets hot right from the get-go! Blue and Black Marlin are here and making their presence known. Additionally, Yellowfin Tuna and a variety of reef fish are all here to test your skills. 

Hurricane season is at its peak, so make sure to consult local weather forecasts before booking a trip or heading out to the sea. Once out there, you’ll be on Marlin, Tuna, Trevally, and others, just a few minutes in.

We’re still in the hurricane season but the local fishery is living up to its reputation nonetheless. Find a calm time window and head out to the Marlin Highway in search of a Grander you’ll be telling tales about for years to come.

The hurricanes are becoming less likely but it’s still a good idea to be on the lookout. The fishing is changing with the season as well but Blue Marlin and Yellowfin Tuna are still great targets in April.

In May, the action is shaken up by the arrival of peak Mahi Mahi season. This certainly doesn’t mean that Marlin and Tuna are nowhere to be found, just that you’ll have to look a bit harder.

Mahi Mahi are now joined by Sailfish and Wahoo, putting the island in the middle of red-hot action. Many trips in this period tend to combine peak season pelagic fishing with a productive visit to the reefs.

This month marks the beginning of some of the coolest weather the island nation sees all year. Although this change of setting may require you to update the dress code, the fishing isn’t changing yet!

For anglers after Billfish, August is the month that brings an unprecedented variety of targets. Sailfish, Swordfish, and Striped Marlin are all starting to make an appearance, daring anglers to test them.

Soon, it will be back to the warm weather characteristic for this part of the world. Until then you can keep yourself warm and busy battling feisty pelagics species such as Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Striped Marlin.

This is the peak month for Striped Marlin and Blue Marlin so you better be ready to take full advantage of this opportunity! Before heading out to the Marlin Alley, shake the rust off by reeling in some hard-fighting fish at the reefs.

Marlin madness is in full swing come November! Black Marlin is now at its peak, Blue Marlin is also still going strong, and even a few Striped Marlin are still there to be caught by Port Vila anglers.

As the year comes to a close we’re back in the hurricane season. Keep the weather conditions in mind when planning your trip and consult your skipper for the best time to go after those Marlin, Yellowfin, and others.
