The detailed programme

A fishing holiday in Mallorca can last 5 days, 4 of which are spent fishing.

1st day of fishing :

We'll pick you up on arrival and take you to the port of Pollença, a town in the north of the island, where you'll find your accommodation and the Pursuit boat on which you'll be staying.

2nd day of fishing :

This is when your fishing holiday in Spain really begins!
We'll start with a typical Spanish breakfast on board our boat and a briefing on the fishing areas we'll be tackling over the next 8 hours.

We can go in search of Denti, one of the most sought-after species in the Balearic Islands. The sizes of these fish are impressive in the region, and it's not uncommon to catch record-breaking fish, either from a boat or from the shore.

3rd day of fishing :

On this, the third day of our fishing trip to Mallorca, we'll be concentrating on the liche. This fish is abundant in the surrounding waters. That's why we can dedicate a day's fishing to it, as this fish is renowned for its fight and sportiness!

Depending on the weather conditions and the behaviour of the liches, we may also decide to fish for tuna such as bonito, on the hunt or by jigging.
It is becoming increasingly common to be able to fish for these fish on the hunt when they come to attack fish on the surface. We can then target them by spinning and popping.

4th day of fishing :

We can start the day slowly, aiming for the magnificent rock fish on the islands of Mallorca.
Cephalopod fishing is also very well known in this region. On a fishing holiday in Mallorca, it is not uncommon to catch cuttlefish, octopus and squid on the same day.
Autumn offers particularly exceptional results for squid fishing. Think of it! And let's not forget the mytic mahi-mahi, very present on the Mallorcan coast, whose fights, jumps and colours are world-renowned.

5th day of fishing :

At your convenience, we can decide to continue with the same type of fishing as the previous days or to concentrate on another of our finest fish: the Saint-Pierre.
If not, we can continue our day in search of the Denti or the mythical Sérioles.
