Night Fishing on a Dhoni

Local Atolls

About This Experience

Ahoy, Angler! Night fishing is a beloved Maldivian tradition, and there's no better way to experience it than on a traditional dhoni under a sky full of stars.

As the sun dips below the horizon, our wooden dhoni heads to the best fishing spots in the local atoll. Using hand lines and traditional techniques passed down through generations, you'll try your luck at catching red snapper, grouper, and other reef fish. Our crew teaches the art of line fishing—no rods, no reels, just you and the ocean. If you're lucky, the crew will BBQ your catch right on the boat under the stars.
