6 Fishing Trips in Indonesia To Build A Day Around

1.Private Sunrise Fishing & Catch-and-Cook Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 57 reviews · 5h 30m · from $160 / groupOur pick

Private Amed sunrise fishing with an English-speaking captain, quality gear, snacks, and a catch-and-cook dinner for up to one group.

“This was an amazing experience. Our guide got us out to the spot early, and we were glad he did. We immediately caught three Mahi Mahi. It was surprisingly easy, even with none of us having any fishing experience. The sunrise was beautiful, as was the view of the volcano from the boat. We caught two more, and headed back a little early. Only ‘con’, they don’t tell you just how wet you’re going to get, but it should be expected. Overall, a perfectly wonderful experience.”

A private 3-hour bottom fishing trip in Gili Trawangan with a friendly English-speaking instructor, gear, bait, and a private boat included.

“Very little guidance from the staff. Literally gave us the rods and then sat on their phones playing games for the entire time. Didn’t seem interested in whether we caught or not. We didn’t catch which I 100% understand is part of fishing but the help from the guides definitely didn’t try to sway this. Wouldn’t recommend”

6.Private Fishing Tour with Snorkeling Option

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 12 reviews · 150 minutes - 10 hours · from $19Best value

Private Lovina fishing on a traditional boat with a local guide, beginner-friendly hand-line help, optional snorkeling for coral reefs, from $19.

“We were a couple hundred meters off the shore and just fishing off the bottom with tiny hooks. You couldn’t catch a big fish if you wanted to. We then paid extra to go see the dolphins. That was good too but the later in the day the better I’d have thought due to number of boats. It was a good time but was expecting more from the photos.”
