Quick answer

A boutique morning of deep sea fishing from Side, capped at just 12 guests, with all rods, lines and fresh bait supplied and a friendly Turkish breakfast on deck.

About this trip

Some days on the water stay with you for a lifetime, and a quiet morning of fishing off the Side coast is exactly that kind of day. A comfortable air-conditioned vehicle collects you from your hotel around 07:00 and carries you down to the harbour, where our purpose-built fishing boat is already waiting. We keep numbers deliberately small, with a maximum of just 12 guests, so there is room to breathe, stretch out on deck, and get real one-on-one time with the captain. As we ease away from the shore into the open Mediterranean, breakfast is served: a traditional Turkish simit and a glass of freshly brewed hot tea, enjoyed with the coastline slipping past. Whether you have fished your whole life or have never held a rod before, this trip is built for a catch. Every piece of professional tackle, line and fresh bait comes aboard with us, and the captain knows exactly where the fish are hiding. Once we drop anchor over the right ground, the fun begins. The Mediterranean is alive beneath the hull, and there is a real thrill the moment you feel that first tug. From small, colourful species to some surprisingly hefty catches, our captain is right beside you to bait the hook, help you reel in, and handle the fish safely. Beyond the fishing, this is simply a lovely way to leave the crowds behind and soak up the calm of the open sea. You are welcome to bring your own snacks and cold drinks, and refreshing beverages are also on sale on board. After a rewarding morning of catches and sea air, we cruise gently back to the harbour and our transfer returns you to your hotel between 12:30 and 13:00, with the whole afternoon still ahead of you.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any fishing experience?+
Not at all. The trip welcomes complete beginners as warmly as seasoned anglers. The captain provides all the gear and shows you how to bait, cast and reel in, so first-timers are in good hands throughout.
What kind of fish might I catch?+
The Mediterranean here is rich with life, so it is common to reel in red mullet, sea bass, sea bream and even shrimp, alongside other small colourful species and the occasional larger catch. The captain chooses the spots carefully to give you the best chance.
Is fishing equipment provided?+
Yes. All professional rods, lines and fresh bait are supplied by the captain and are included in the price. You are welcome to bring your own tackle if you prefer, but nothing is required.
How long is the tour and what are the times?+
Plan for about six hours door to door. Hotel pickup is around 07:00, and our transfer returns you between 12:30 and 13:00, leaving the rest of your day free.
Can I bring my own food and drinks?+
Absolutely. You are fully welcome to bring your own snacks, meals and cold beverages on board. Cold drinks are also available to purchase on the boat if you would rather travel light.
