At African Offshore Safaris, we offer an unforgettable ocean experience! Whilst we offer a variety of offshore safari options, from whale watching to freediving to swimming with dolphins, our true expertise lies in fishing and spearfishing. The KZN Coast is unique for the sheer variety of fish that it gets, from the strong Cape Yellow Tail and Black Musselcracker from the colder waters down south to the lighting fast Wahoo, King Mackerel and billfish from the warmer waters to the north, we truly are blessed with world class fishing! Our fishing/spearfishing trips are full day trips (launching at first light and fishing until around mid-afternoon) and include all fishing equipment (spearfishing equipment is not provided, but certain gear can be arranged if needed), snacks and cooldrinks.

I have been an ocean lover since a young age, having grown up surfing and bodyboarding most days of the week on the beaches of Durban. The natural progression of things was for me to transition from riding waves to diving under water to see all that the ocean has to offer. I soon discovered spearfishing and have been hooked ever since!
