Makaira Sports Fishing is a full-service charter service operating in the beautiful Fiji Islands. The charter company’s home base, Taveuni Island, was ranked as the #1 most beautiful island in the world by tripsavvy. From this stunning tropical paradise, Makaira offers great experiences taking advantage of the amazing fishery found in the sparkling blue waters just offshore.

Makaira Sports Fishing has a fleet of three custom built fishing boats, Sea Afare, Dream Time II, and Slam Em.  These are modest skiffs but make no mistake – they are well equipped with Shimano and Penn tackle, and important gear like fighting belts, gaffs, and outriggers. You’re going to need it – the fish in Fiji get BIG.

Fiji is renowned for its rich biodiversity, and offers a variety of truly pristine fishing opportunities. Makaira offers many options with its trips, and you can choose to focus on big game trolling, reef fishing, or jigging/popping. Common species caught include marlin, yellowfin tuna, dogtooth tuna, mahi, wahoo, giant trevally and a wide variety of colorful reef fish.

Your trip will be booked by manager Colleen, and all of the English-speaking crew are highly experienced and experts in the local waters. If you would like, you can request a combination trip that includes snorkeling the rainbow reef, or an eco-tour visiting nearby islands and some of the phenomenal natural scenery and wildlife.
