Anguilla offers diverse opportunities for fishing experiences. The British territory is surrounded by warm Caribbean waters which are home to popular species such as tuna, marlin, mackerel, and mahi-mahi. Visitors can coordinate an excursion with a chartered fishing company, which will secure all the necessary fishing permits.
Tour guides can help anglers determine the best fishing spots for their desired variety. For example, those in search of marlin or sailfish must travel further out than fishing enthusiasts looking for barracudas or red snappers. Fishing along the shoreline is more suitable for catching bonefish or soap fish. While fishing is possible all-year-round, it is not recommended to travel during the hurricane season from June to November.
