When it comes to fishing, anglers are always sure to find a spot somewhere along the beautiful Hibiscus Coast, with its warm Indian Ocean, piers, dams and abundance of rivers.
When it comes to deep sea fishing, there are several local sites that offer fishing charters from skiboat launch sites, including:

∙ Shelly Beach
∙ Scottburgh
∙ Rocky Bay
∙ Pennington
∙ Hibberdene
∙ Lucien Beach
∙ Ramsgate
∙ Glenmore / Munster.

From any of these fishing charters, anglers are likely to catch multiple game species, including yellowfin tuna, amberjack, king mackerel (couta), dorado, skipjack, sailfish, marlin, wahoo, sardasarda, bonito, yellowtail and green jobfish.
Those looking to showcase their fishing skills can participate in any of the annual skiboat festivals which offer prizes for the best catches. These take place at Shelly Beach and Port Edward, with the Paddock fishing competition held near Oribi Gorge.
There are also riverboat tours that offer a more freshwater angling experience, rock and surf fishing spots, and bass fishing opportunities within the KZN South Coast. It’s difficult to find anywhere on the Hibiscus Coast that doesn’t have incredible fishing!
