Optional Addition: Artisanal Fishing - Let a Trip Planner know if interested in this optional addition!
The fishing banks traditionally used by the island's artisanal fishermen are integral to their way of life. The locals are renowned for spending more time at sea than on land. The ocean is not only vital for their food sovereignty but also a significant economic activity intricately linked to responsible tourism in the Seaflower Biosphere Reserve.

Fishing is conducted in small outboard motorboats, targeting common catches like tuna, sawfish, dorado, groupers, snappers, barracudas, and jacks. This trolling fishing is carried out traditionally using hand lines. This experience encompasses the stories of the fishermen, their encounters with the sea and marine creatures, their past and present adventures in small boats on the high seas—some have even been castaways, eager to share their profound respect for the blue planet.
