Fishing Boat Trip

Pick up at your location

Your adventure begins at Denton Bridge - approximately 30 30-minute drive from the main tourist areas. 

What to expect

from Fishing Boat Trip

Your journey starts by boarding a double-decker wooden boat at Denton Bridge. The boat can carry up to 40 people and is equipped with a bar – offering drinks, a Bluetooth speaker for your favourite choice of music and a clean and neat toilet.

You will be driving amongst the mangroves of Oyster Creek to reach the open area of The River Gambia, where you will settle to start your fishing experience. Angling experts will assist you with the preparation of baits and introduce you to the craft of fishing with a rod if you are a beginner.

At dinner time, you will enjoy a delicious buffet meal and evening fruits on the way back.

The boat trip can take up to six hours, depending on your preference. If departure time is in the afternoon, you might be lucky also to catch the astonishing sunset seen through mangroves.

You will return to the starting point, hopefully with a fresh catch of Catfish, ladyfish, Butterfish, Shinny nose, Cassava fish, etc.

End of tour

We can organize transport to/from Denton bridge from your place of stay.

Rates are per person and might vary depending on the availability.
