Malé, Maldives has been chosen as one of the best 9 fishing destinations in the world for German travellers
FishingBooker has put together a list of the best warm travel destinations for the colder months. The list includes popular travel destinations as well as perhaps lesser-known places in different countries. But they all have two things in common: the temperatures remain pleasant and the fishing is fantastic. In this regard, the capital city of Maldives, Malé, has had the pleasure of being included in the list.
In the Maldives, winter temperatures of 25 ° to 30 ° C are similar to those in Thailand. In Malé, you can find fishing opportunities at almost every pier. Probably the most famous fish in the atoll is the thick-headed jackfish, which provides fantastic fights all year round. In addition to this species, there are other big game classics such as mahi mahi, blue and black marlin and various types of tuna. The tuna in particular are often caught using traditional methods, which is a very special experience.
A visit to the Maldives is all about the sea. From fishing, swimming and snorkeling, to dolphin watching and the paradisiacal beaches, everything is offered here that makes a tropical dream vacation in the sun. The individual islands and atolls are connected to each other by speed boats or planes, so that an excursion is possible at any time.
Fish is the country's main natural resource and fishing is the second largest industry. Fishing through sustainable methods is encouraged, and Maldivians use "pole and line", a centuries-old technique to ensure minimal harm on marine life.
FishingBooker is the largest online marketplace for booking yacht charters for recreational fishing. The site has been described as “Airbnb for fishing charters.”
