Mozambique’s Bazaruto Archipelago, a protected national park since 1971, remains one of the world’s most coveted destinations for deep-sea sport fishing with its rich biodiversity. At Anantara Bazaruto Island Resort, the Indian Ocean’s warm, turquoise waters beckon both seasoned anglers and adventurous newcomers to cast off into one of the world’s richest marine playgrounds.

Recognised globally for its prolific giant black marlin population and legendary catches, Bazaruto is Africa’s crown jewel for big game fishing. It has earned its reputation as one of the top three places in the world to land giant black marlin exceeding 1,000 lbs, including the All-Africa record of 1,298 lbs, an emblem of its enduring angling legacy.
