Recent reviews in abu dhabi.

November, 2022

This yacht was perfect for a family of 8 looking for a fun and relaxing time! Mohammed was very nice, and very happy to take us somewhere so that we can jump into the sea. It was overall a fabulous experience. (Note: the waters were NOT beautiful and didn't look very clean and inviting, and at some point we spotted a jellyfish, so didn't go in for very long.) But I highly recommend - it was a perfect activity for our last day in the UAE!

September, 2021

It was an awesome experience...yacht was very well equipped, decorated and cleaned...sound system helped us to enjoy our small birthday...Ac helped us to eat our snacks comfortably although outside on deck the weather was amazing....highly recommended...

January, 2021

The trip was amazing, I had a great time and my family had a good time as well. I would love to book again soon and would definitely recommend it to others. Our captain and guide Sudais was very professional and helpful he really made the experience worth while. If your considering the trip, ask for him if its possible. Fishing handlines where provided, but we took our own rods along with us and we used both. We caught a lot of fish, biggest Groupers I've ever seen in person. had a very good time and it was definitely worth the price.

January, 2022

Thank you for accommodating our last request. The boat accommodations on the boat and the Captain was wonderful. The view and itinerary was wonderful. Everyone in our party satisfied with everything and we were grateful. The decor was great.

September, 2020

We had such a great time! Captain Noman communicated everything very well before the trip. He was very accommodating and showed us a good time! My kids really enjoyed every minute of the trip! Highly recommend booking with Cristal Boats!!

What a great experience! My friends and I had a lot of fun with Captain Sandeep. For most of us, it was our first time fishing, and he made us feel very comfortable and was patient with us. I can't wait to book another trip!

Simple answer – any.

MORE INFORMATION ON DEEP SEA FISHING IN UAE

We do both trolling & bottom fishing , ofcourse depending on the requirements of the guests we pick the amount of time for each.

If the goal is to catch only bigger fish we place a bigger emphasize on the trolling, if the goal is to catch more fish, then its bottom fishing.

WHAT WE NORMALLY CATCH

When deep sea   fishing in UAE there is always a staple of fish that is very in common, i.e: something that you can rely on to be consistent.

For trolling the most common kinds of fish are barracuda , king fish , trevally , cobia & blue fin tuna . The last 3 are less common than the first 2.

The best time to catch larger game is between November & May , and the absolute best months are Jan-March .

When bottom fishing, the most common catch is Sherri (Emperor Bream), Sultan Ibrahim (Goat Fish/Red Mullet) and Hamour (Grouper). Time to time Jas & Mackarel are caught as well.

WHERE WE FISH

Usually we fish about 16 miles from shore, which takes about 30 minutes to reach. Our captains have fish finders aswell as GPS coordinates of tried and tested fishing spots for both trolling & fishing .

WHAT TO BRING

We recommend bringing sunblock, long sleeve t-shirts, warm clothing in winter months, sea sickness pills & some snacks.

TOP FISH TO BE CONSUMED

Below is a list of Fish in the UAE that have healthy numbers and must be a priority for consumption.

  • Orange Spotted Trevally (Jesh Um Al Hala)
  • Two Bar Seabream (Faskar)
  • Black-Streaked Monocle Bream (Ebzimi)
  • Yellow Bar Angelfish (Anfooz)
  • Sordid Sweetlips (Yanam)
  • Ehrenbergs Snapper (Naiser)
  • Yellow Fin Seabream (Shaam)
  • Blackspotted Rubberlip (Hilali)
  • Giant Sea Catfish (Khan)
  • Yellow Tail Scad (Durduman)

HOW TO CATCH FISH

Step 1 : Go To Where The Fish Is

When it comes to deep sea fishing trips , the importance of location is drastically different to shore fishing.

Once you have pushed off, the most important thing to catch fish in the UAE, like anywhere else in the world is to find the ‘ spots ’.

As a rule of thumb, drop offs, trenches, reefs, and any other place that provides some sort of cover. Places like this attract smaller fish, which in turn attract larger game animals.

As mentioned above, our captains have such spots on their GPS which have been developed through years of fishing & experience.

Step 2: Choosing The Bait

It’s off great important to pick bait that matches what you are targeting.

As mentioned above, squid usually works best for bottom fishing, whereas artificial plastic fish is used for larger game fishing.

Step 3: Choose the Fishing Method

Usually we start out trip with about 1-1.5 hours of trolling, with a goal of catching larger game fish. After that, depending ofcourse on the requirements of the guests we usually move onto bottom fishing.

As a result we usually end up with a good mix of larger & smaller fish.

TIPS FOR FISHING IN UAE

#1: Change Bait Regularly

When bottom fishing, often the bait either comes off, or is taken off by the fish, which leaves you just sitting & waiting for nothing.

#2: Be Patient

As any experienced fisherman will tell you – patience is key. Without patience you are unlikely to have any catch at all.

#3: Let The Crew Help

Especially with larger game, it is very tricky to pull out of the water, and infact often dangerous. Do not interfere with the crew when they are pulling out the more dangerous animals.

TRADITION OF FISHING IN UAE

In the UAE, which lies entirely along the coast line, fishing has been an immensely popular activity and source of protein.

Fish was caught and either eaten immediately or salted and taken inland. This was often an important source of protein for inland residents aswell as camel fodder and fertilizer.

The most common types of traditional fishing methods was through the use of nets, called ‘Hadra’ or ‘Gargour’ which were deployed from boats called lanshs, or palm-front shashahs.

In recent years, due to the large increase in demand for seafood, larger and more advanced fishing methods are being used for commercial fishing the local fish stocks are being depleted, causing a risk which is being addressed by the Environment Agency Abu Dhabi.

WHAT ELSE TO DO IN DUBAI

#1: sea cruise around palm island.

If you are not into fishing, you can have a quick yacht cruise around the Palm Island, through Dubai Marina & the coast of Jumeirah.

Its a great 2 hour experience that will give you a feeling of freedom, freshness & provide you with a great view of the Dubai coastline.

#2 YACHT RENTAL DUBAI

If you are not interested in a quick 2 hour cruise on a small and nifty motor yacht, you can rent a much larger boat and through a birthday party, a wedding, just a party and spend a longer time out in the sea.

#3 ABU DHABI CITY TOUR

A City Tour of Abu Dhabi is an important thing to do in the UAE, as it provides insight and perspective on the evolution of the UAE.

The heritage village & Sheikh Zayed are some of the most iconic attractions & landmarks of the UAE.

#4 DHOW CRUISE DINNER IN DUBAI MARINA

Dubai Marina is one of the nicest areas in Dubai and its an awesome area to explore, both as a tourist & a local.

Seeing the area from a boat, while having a dining experience is a great way to understand the area.

#5 MUSANDAM DAY TRIP

Musandam is an area that belongs to the Sultanate of Oman, but its infact surrounded by the UAE. It is accessible from the UAE and is a truly unique area with Fjords and the richest underwater life in the area. It is perfect for Scuba Diving .

#6 DUBAI CITY TOUR

For someone that is just visiting Dubai, the city won’t make much sense. There are a lot of contrasts and seemingly contradictive sights.

An experienced Tour Guide is a great way to understand the city, and see the contrasts in a meaningful way.

The website is operated by ABSea Yachts & Boats Rental LLC , and is intended to market the 4 boats that we have in Abu-Dhabi, Dubai & Ras Al Khaimah.ABSea are the end owners of those boats and have a full-time crew to operate them.All our fishing boats are full insured, safe and have all the necessary fishing equipment to have a great time out at sea.

Abu Dhabi is known for its warm and sunny climate throughout the year, but the weather conditions can change quickly. It is important to dress appropriately for the weather conditions to ensure that you are comfortable throughout your fishing trip. We recommend wearing light-colored and loose-fitting clothing made of breathable fabric to keep you cool. It is also essential to wear a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun’s harmful rays.

Fishing trips can be enjoyable, but safety should always come first. It is essential to follow safety guidelines provided by the fishing charter company, wear a life jacket, and avoid standing up or moving around the boat while fishing.

Today we take a look into the history of fishing in Abu Dhabi as well as the best places to fish on your visit to the UAE Captial.

History of Fishing in Abu Dhabi

Best Places to Go Fishing in Abu Dhabi - History of Fishing in Abu Dhabi | The Vacation Builder

The history of fishing in Abu Dhabi and its people has come a long way. Fishing has always been a deeply embedded tradition in the Emirati culture. Prior to the petroleum era in the 1960s, the people of this region used to depend on fishing hugely.

Fishing was not just a sport back then but a strong means of survival and the naturally blessed Gulf area never disappointed the Emirati people. A good catch was almost guaranteed in this fish-rich creek area most days.

With the exponential growth in the size of the city along with its population, the demand of seafood has risen and so has the massive investment in the UAE’s fishing industry. With the new advances in the field, this industry is flourishing like anything before.

Fishing has also crafted a special niche as a celebrated adventure sport and pastime across the nation, particularly in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. With more than 500+ marine species, fishing is surely going to be a riveting experience for your Abu Dhabi tour.

The Best Places to go Fishing in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi has got a string of fantastic fishing spots. All these places are visited frequently by professionals as well as fishing enthusiasts. Below are our favourites.

1. Al Aryam

Located off the west coast of the city, Al Aryam Island is the most celebrated and exceptionally rich fish-bed in Abu Dhabi.

Previously known as Bu Khushaishah, this fishing spot is insanely famous and no wonder why the island remains crowded with fishing-lovers from everywhere.

Al Aryam is known to the best spot to hook mackerels and breams. There are other fishes too but these two species dominate the water here. Apart from the enrich marine biodiversity, this island captivates visitors with its breathtaking view of the sea.

This is also the natural habitat for the majestic creatures, flamingos. Therefore, if you don’t have much time or resource in your hand to explore different fishing spots in Abu Dhabi, just head for Al Aryam. Both fishing and cherishing stunning natural elements go hand in hand when you choose this island to drop the bait.

2. Al Rahba

Al Rahba is fascinating spot in Abu Dhabi to go for fishing. Sitting close to Al Sheleilah Island, north of Ras Sadr, this fishing destination offers an elevating and rewarding experience with loads of catch.  While fishing here, you can actually watch the tide gushing in. This is something rare to witness anywhere else in Abu Dhabi.

The stream is quite strong at Al Rahba and that’s what brings so many varieties of fish for you to catch. At the end of the day, you will be surprised by the variety that you have managed to catch here.

Apart from fishing, Al Rahba gives you an opportunity to behold the magical sunset along with the tidal waves in the evenings. This spot is primarily frequented by professionals but beginners can also try their luck.

3. Al Bateen Beach

Looking for a scenic fishing spot in and around Abu Dhabi? The city has got Al Bateen Beach for you. Located near Hodariyat Bridge, this fishing spot allows you to go with your pace without any hustling crowd around you.

Al Bateen Beach is a beautiful place to plan a laid-back fishing vacation but there are not many basic amenities here. It lacks benches and umbrellas on the beach. So, you may find it hard to continue with fishing particularly during the noon. This is why you will spot fewer people on the beach compared to other popular beaches in the city.

Thanks to nominal crowds, Al Bateen Beach is ideal for sport fishing in Abu Dhabi. Even this beach has recently secured the prestigious blue flag sustainability award from the Emirates Wildlife Authority.

With a permit, you can hunt for fishes like hammour, kingfish and stingrays at the beach. If luck favours, you can even catch the sailfish too.

Situated at the fringe of Musaffah South, ICAD II is a great spot to cater your need for a pleasurable fishing outing in the city. The spot is just off Taif Road.

As this spot is mostly visited by tourists and fishing enthusiasts, there are plenty of charter boats and camping companies available at your service.

To make sea fishing adventure days more promising, ICAD II features a campsite. Don’t forget to bring food and water for an overnight stay.

Staying at ICAD II after a satisfying fishing session can be really amazing if you plan well ahead of your visit. Booking your accommodation, boat and securing the food is all you need to do.

5. Hameem Beach

When you don’t want to visit the regular fishing spots in Abu Dhabi and more willing to have the best fishing experience in the area, Hameem Beach can be your best bet.

This secluded fishing spot is about a 21-minute boat ride from Musaffah South. This is also one of the most scenic and serene camping sites in Abu Dhabi where fishing comes as an added perk. The strategical location of Hameem Beach has turned it into a favourite picnic destination for families and friend groups.

Mackerels are the most common catch at Hameem Beach with little bit of other varieties of fishes. This place also looks ethereal at the dusk with all those vibrant sunset hues painting the sky.

6. Al Raha Beach

Located near the Yas Tunnel at the edge of the Al Zeina desert, Al Raha Beach is a small but popular fishing spot in Abu Dhabi. Travelling to this spot must be arranged from Yas Island with help of a boat rental.

Heading Al Raha Beach from Yas Island by water boat itself is a splendid experience. Fishing at Al Raha is both relaxing and satisfying as you don’t have to struggle at all with ditching the crowd. People visiting this stunning place is very few in number.

7. Yas Island

Do you need a Licence to go Fishing in Abu Dhabi?

Not just in Abu Dhabi, you must secure a licence to go fishing anywhere in the UAE . Don’t worry though, the process to obtain a fishing licence is simpler and quicker than you can imagine.

UAE fishing licences comes with a year-long validity which means you don’t need to reapply for it every time you think of going on a fishing trip. The licence allows you to fish with a hand-held rod or reel but not with a fishing net.

The best part is, tourists can also obtain the licence via a licenced vendor or an authorised tour guide. Such licence comes with short term validity but that’s enough for tourists to have a blissful fishing experience in UAE.

How to Get a Fishing Licence in Abu Dhabi?

You have to apply to the Abu Dhabi Environment Agency for a fishing licence. You need to be over 18 years of age to be eligible to get a licence.

If you are a part of a fishing excursion with a company, you don’t need a separate fishing licence as the company will already have a commercial licence to cover all participants.

If you are a tourist in Abu Dhabi, then go through a licenced vendor or fishing tour operator to secure a short-term fishing licence to cover your vacation length.

Best Time to go Fishing in Abu Dhabi

What type of fishing you are looking for depends largely on the time of the year you are choosing to go fishing in Abu Dhabi.

During winter months, fish tend to come closer to the water surface and there you can catch lots of tuna, mackerel and kingfish in the shallow water. So, we recommend you to go fishing from November to March in Abu Dhabi.

Rising temperatures of summer days keeps fish away from shore so you need to go deep-sea fishing to catch them. June to August is the time for summer-day deep-sea adventures when you can catch giant trevally, shari, marlin, mackerel, grouper fish and many more.

Five Best Fishing Spots in Abu Dhabi

Five Best Fishing Spots in Abu Dhabi

Among the most popular outdoor leisure activities that many people enjoy during their downtime is fishing , which has become one of the most popular forms of hunting in the UAE. Although there are plenty of places in the UAE where you can drop a line, it’s understandable that the largest Emirate of the UAE – Abu Dhabi , presents some remarkable fishing spots that are worth exploring. With the numerous fishing spots Abu Dhabi offers, you can enjoy a peaceful seaside experience on beautiful beaches, or you can cast your line out on the water for rich rewards as you relax and enjoy.

If you are planning to go fishing in Abu Dhabi , one of the most important things to consider is where the fish are biting. Despite the fact that Abu Dhabi experiences a rough summer, most of the fishing points are perfect throughout the year, so whenever you go fishing in Abu Dhabi , there will always be something ready to take your bait. A variety of fish can be caught on the shores of Abu Dhabi based upon the season, such as kingfish, sailfish, queenfish, dorados, and tunas. In addition to this, you can also venture out to the deep ocean if you wish to find shari, giant trevally, blue and white marlin, grouper fish, Spanish mackerel, or wahoo.

Table of Contents

Given that you now have a clear understanding of what kind of fishing you could find in Abu Dhabi, let’s now dive into the top five best fishing locations in Abu Dhabi to take part in sport fishing activities here.

Al-Bateen Beach

Located near Hodariyat Bridge, Al-Bateen Beach is a place which is particularly recognized for its stingrays, hammours, and kingfish. You might even be able to catch a sailfish if you’re lucky enough. Al-Bateen beach was awarded the blue flag sustainability award by the Emirates Wildlife Authority a while ago. This was despite a lack of basic facilities such as benches and umbrellas at the beach. Would anyone like to overlook this?

Al Aryam Island

There is a chance you will be able to catch breams as well as mackerels off of Al Aryam Island , which is a relatively well-known fishing spot in Abu Dhabi . Historically, it was referred to as Bu Khushi Shah, and it has horse ranches as well as royal palaces that can be seen within the area. In addition to the fact that it offers great fishing opportunities , it also offers spectacular views of the sea. It serves as a habitat for flamingos, as well as being a great place to spend a day, which makes it extremely popular as a day trip destination.

As one of the most popular attractions in Abu Dhabi, Al Raha is a mixed-use development with a wide range of uses. It is divided into two precincts, Al Raha Beach and Al Raha Gardens . As far as fishing is concerned, Al Raha Beach area is probably one of the best places in the region. Located at the edge of the Al Zeina desert, the Yas tunnel is an ideal place where you can carry out fishing over here. Getting a boat rental from Yas Island is the best option if you wish to fish at Al Raha Beach , as you can take a boat trip from there to the spot and then fish from the boat.

This beautiful fishing spot is situated at the edge of Musaffah South, so it can be safely said that the Icad II is one of the best fishing spots in Abu Dhabi . In spite of the small size of the fish in ICAD 2 , the fish seems to be extremely energetic despite its small size. In case you are planning on visiting it, make sure that you bring shrimp pieces as well as chicken pieces to use as bait. Fish and squid should not be cooked here. There are no markets or stores located in the ICAD II area, which is unfortunate. Therefore, I strongly recommend you to carry enough food and water with you to ensure that you enjoy your stay in the area.

Permits for Fishing in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi’s oceans and their species have been protected and protected by the Federal Law Number. (23) of the year 1999. In accordance with the Federal Law number 23, people who wish to fish on the beaches in Abu Dhabi must get a license from the Environment Agency Abu Dhabi in order to do so.
