Musandam is the original GT destination in Oman and what put GT fishing in Oman on the map and still produces some amazing fish with the biggest being 56kgs this last season with a few more 50kg+ fish along the way. This last season we also caught a good variety of big fish from 40kgs Longtail Tuna to 43kg Kingfish to 45kg sailfish.
Musandam Oman is an easy destination to get to from Dubai only being 1.5 hours drive from Dubai airport so a lot less hassle than Southern Oman but still has a lot of GTs and big GTs. Also the set up in Musandam is a lot more comfortable with our villa being run for the last 5 years and a good crew looking after the boats and guests and the boat being bigger and better equipped than the Southern Oman boats because of the shear fact of being closer to shops, services and products. There are also 5 star hotel options if you require something a bit more luxurious or bringing the better half!
We have a few spots open for the coming season if you are interested. Below are the openings:
18-22 September - This is still a very hot time of year but the fish start moving back inshore after summer and the fishing is usually smoking!
