Mauritius offers some of the best spots for deep sea fishing in the world

Here you will find large populations of swordfish, tuna, and black marlin, as well as blue marlin for which Mauritius is renowned.

Mauritius is a mid-ocean volcanic sea mount, therefore deep water and big game fish are never further than a short boat ride from shore, making the big game fishing rounds easily accessible.

For those who make the journey, Mauritius is well worth the effort. In addition to world-class fishing, it boasts spectacular beaches and exciting nightlife and casinos

Mauritius has been hosting for 10 years “The South Indian Ocean Billfish Competition “ (SIOBC) which is an annual international event which attracts anglers from many countries from all over the world.

This year the event is being organized by the Le Morne Anglers' Club, will be taking place between 14th to 21st February 2010.
