Amazing Anguilla Fishing 

At Sandcastle Villa & Beach House, guests can seamlessly blend luxury with the thrill of fishing, enjoying some of Anguilla’s finest angling opportunities right at their doorstep. Anguilla, renowned for its white sand beaches and luxurious accommodations, also offers diverse and rewarding fishing experiences for both seasoned anglers and beginners alike. Just steps from your villa, you’ll find prime fishing spots, from casting a line off the rocks behind the property to exploring nearby beaches. The early morning, particularly at sunrise, is the ideal time to fish, offering a tranquil start to the day with the highest chances of catching a variety of species.

​

Shore and Nearshore Fishing

 

Guests can enjoy easy access to fishing by simply casting off from the rocks behind Sandcastle Villa or by taking a short walk westward to additional prime fishing spots. This experience allows guests to enjoy Anguilla’s beautiful sunrise while trying their hand at catching various species close to shore. For those interested in a more adventurous outing, however, booking a fishing charter is an excellent way to experience the best of Anguilla’s fishing.

 

Fishing Charters for an Immersive Experience

For a guided experience, Anguilla offers a range of fishing charters led by local experts who know the best fishing spots. These charters cater to all skill levels and typically include all necessary equipment—just confirm what’s provided when booking. On these trips, anglers have the opportunity to catch exciting species like wahoo, mahi-mahi, tarpon, doctor fish, and great barracuda. Many charters even offer combined trips that include fishing, snorkeling, and a scenic lunch stop at nearby islands such as Prickly Pear, Sandy Island, or Scilly Cay, enhancing your day with a blend of adventure and relaxation.

If deep-sea fishing is your passion, you’ll find opportunities to catch larger fish, including barracuda, grouper, kingfish, marlin, sailfish, and wahoo. For fly-fishers, Anguilla’s nearshore waters offer ladyfish and snook, adding to the island’s range of fishing experiences. And if luck isn’t on your side one day, fresh fish is available daily at the Fish Depot in The Valley, where our concierge can also arrange for fresh lobster and crayfish deliveries straight to your villa.

 

Fishing Permits and Regulations

A fishing permit is required for all visitors and can be obtained from the Department of Fisheries and Marine Services for about $30 USD. Our concierge team, or your chosen charter service, can assist with permit arrangements. It’s essential to note that spearfishing is strictly prohibited, and lobster trapping is illegal in Anguilla, ensuring the preservation of the island’s rich marine life.
