An Island trip to remember
Dear Big Blue, I’m writing to say a huge thank you for our spectacular day out on Spanish Fly last month. From the moment we arrived at Big Blue in Vilankulo to the moment we returned, our day far exceeded our expectations. After selecting our snorkeling equipment and life jackets for the children, we boarded

Fishing for Black Marlin in the Bazaruto Archipelago
Probably the most exciting fishing on the east coast of Africa happens during the months of October and November outside the Bazaruto Archipelago.

The main attraction

Whale Watching
The Bazaruto Archipelago must be one of the most ideal whale and dolphin watching locations in the world. We are extremely lucky to find these mammals in the very calm, shallow water behind the islands. The first Humpback whales are normally seen in the Bazaruto Archipelago from about the beginning of July as they travel

What Our Clients Say
I have had the privilege of fishing with Morgan on a number of occasions and what really stands out is his comprehensive angling knowledge, be it shore-based spinning or bait-fishing, off-shore jigging and popping or big game. It is very seldom that one finds a guide with such wide-spread knowledge and ability.
Barry Whareham
South African Springbok Fisherman
Big Blue Vilankulo is one of those special Mozambican charter operations that has the ability to offer everything from targeting Billfish, popping for GT’s, Fly fishing and everything else in between. Morgan has been around a long time, and is one of the first guides I would recommend to anybody wanting to fish in Mozambique. A trip with Big Blue is a guarantee of lots of laughs, lots of great fishing, and an amazing all round Mozambican experience!
