Islands are great for fishing, the very nature of the fact that they are surrounded by water means that you can fish from almost anywhere on the shore of an island. You will be glad to hear that Tenerife is no exception to this rule and the fishing in Tenerife is simply fantastic. What’s more, if you are a big game fisherman (or woman) you can indulge yourself on Tenerife.

 You can go big game fishing from Puerto Colon Marina in Las Americas. Here you can charter a boat and during the season you can fish for many big game species including:

• Blue Marlin,
  
• Blue Fin Tuna,
  
• Big Eye Tuna
  
• Wahoo and others
  

The Blue Marlin is without doubt the king of the Big Game Fish the world over and here in Tenerife this is no exception. This fish holds the Tenerife record for the largest  ever landed in Tenerife. On  09/10/1999 a Blue Marlin weighing in at 441 Kgs (972lb) was landed, breaking the existing Tenerife record for Big Game Fish. Big Game fishing and Tenerife, what an exciting combination.
