Local liveaboard
trips offer the fishing enthusiast a greater opportunity to explore and
experience what the Andaman Sea has to offer. Although the destinations
reached are similar to those of the day trips – the islands of Racha Noi
and Racha Yai, Maiton, Kai and other destinations such as Phi Phi, liveaboards
reach a greater number of the hot spots that are not accessible on a one
day trip. They also offer the distinct advantage of providing a wider
range of types of fishing and thus the opportunity to catch a greater
variety of fish. Bottom fishing and night shark fishing are also a focus
on these charters, providing the deep sea fishing angler with a unique
perspective on the fish rich waters of this area.
All meals aboard these charters are provided
and chefs cater to both Thai and Western cuisines. Your catch of the day
may be cooked to your liking or, simply ask your chef to prepare a special
dish.
Boats
available for local liveaboard charters are available for a period from
two days/one night, three days/two nights to four days/three nights.Suggested sleeping capacity is four persons
to a maximum of five. The Dorado will accommodate six to eight persons.
Liveaboard Fishing Various species of gamefish such as Giant
Trevally, Tuna, Dorado, Barracuda, Wahoo, Blue Finned Trevally, Cobia,
Narrow Barred Mackerel (Tenggiri) and Rainbow Runners can be caught in
the waters off Phuket. The bigger gamefish of Black Marlin, Sailfish and
several species of sharks are found in deeper waters. A wide range of
fishing techniques can be used given the conditions and types of fish
to be caught: casting poppers, drift fishing with live and dead baits,
bottom fishing, trolling are just a few techniques we can use.

charters. Phuket Deep Sea Fishing can
