Marina de Vilamoura

"There were four of us (brothers on a long weekend away) and we all agreed to go shark fish. We all found it well organised and at a very reasonable price we had a captain and a crewman both friendly and at times very amusing but most importantly very knowledgeable which helped us greatly to find the sharks we were seeking. After a journey of about one hour straight out to sea engines were turned off and baits were set and we waited expectantly for the take. Sea fishermen will sometimes tell you that rod fishing for shark can be hours with nothing happening followed by a period of sheer excitement and what seems like disorganised chaos. We were lucky with the help of our crewman we were able to catch three blue sharks at the same time, which I believe is quite unusual. After a monster tussle with these three leviathans (well they seemed huge and don't forget fishermen always tell fibs) we managed to bring them on deck and after a photograph or two we returned them to the sea. After a few more sharks we made our way back to shore having agreed that our trip was most enjoyable. Thank you to the all the staff and especially the crew of the Rascasso."
