Fishing Trip all included

Combining Adventure and Authenticity: Our Review of the All-Inclusive Fishing Trip in Valencian Community

A fishing trip in the Valencian Community sounds like a straightforward outdoor activity, but this particular tour offered by Tours Costa Blanca takes it a step further. It’s a 6-hour all-inclusive experience aboard a large, well-equipped catamaran with a highly skilled skipper—who’s a 10-time Spanish fishing champion and twice a world champion. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just looking to try something new, this trip promises both fun and some genuine fishing expertise.

What we love most about this experience is the professional guidance coupled with a relaxed, intimate group setting—limited to just 8 participants—which makes for a personalized adventure. The boat’s size (11 meters in length) allows plenty of room to move around and enjoy the water views, while the all-inclusive aspect means you don’t have to worry about bringing gear or supplies.

A potential consideration is that the trip isn’t suited for wheelchair users, given the boat’s setup, so it’s best suited for those with a moderate level of mobility. Also, if your main goal is to land a big fish, this trip might lean more towards a fun, educational outing with good chances to catch smaller to medium-sized fish rather than trophy-sized catches.

This tour is perfect for anyone who loves the water, wants to learn from a true expert, or simply desires a memorable day on the sea with all logistics taken care of. It’s especially appealing for those who value quality, guidance, and a relaxed but focused fishing experience.

A Deep Dive into the Experience

Starting Point and Logistics

The adventure begins at the marina in Salinas, Torrevieja, where the boat is ready and waiting. The boat departs early in the morning—around 8 am—and returns by 2 pm, giving you a solid 6 hours on the water. The early start is perfect for avoiding midday heat and maximizing fishing time, especially if the water is more active in the morning.

The pickup at the marina means you avoid the hassle of arranging transport, and since it’s a small group, the experience feels more like a shared adventure than a crowded tour. The activity ends back at the starting point, making logistics straightforward.

The Vessel: A Comfortable, Capable Catamaran

The boat itself is a highlight. Measuring 11 meters, it’s the largest and best-equipped in Alicante’s fishing scene. Its size allows for plenty of space for anglers to cast and move comfortably, which is particularly appreciated during the longer fishing sessions.

The vessel is designed for comfort and stability, making it easier to focus on the fun part—fishing! The deck layout ensures everyone gets a good view and space to manage their gear. With a dedicated sailor on board, the crew handles navigation and safety, leaving you free to concentrate on fishing.

The Skipper: A Champion with a Passion for Sharing

What sets this trip apart is the skipper, who’s a 10-time Spanish fishing champion and has won twice at the world level. As the reviews highlight, he’s extremely knowledgeable, patient, and eager to share his expertise.

Miles, one of the reviewers, mentioned how the skipper “knows his gear and the water,” and that he has “great patience,” which is essential for a relaxed, educational experience. Even when luck isn’t on your side, he’s quick to give tips and explanations, making sure everyone leaves with some new skills or insights about fishing.

The Fish and the Catch

While the reviews note a variety of fish—snapper, mackerel, and others—the focus is more on the quality of the experience rather than landing record-breaking catches. According to Hans, “all onboard got fish, 5-10 each,” with some bigger ones among the smaller fish. The guides’ expertise helps maximize your chances, even if the big ones are playing hard to get.

One reviewer pointed out that despite not catching “big fish,” the trip was still highly recommended because of the professionalism and the chance to catch “about 5 different types of fish.” The experience is as much about learning and enjoying the water as it is about the size of the catch.

The All-Inclusive Experience

Having all necessary fishing gear included means you can focus entirely on the fun. Plus, cold drinks keep everyone refreshed on the boat’s deck. This convenience adds real value, especially for those new to fishing or visitors unfamiliar with local gear.

The Environment and Atmosphere

Expect a laid-back, friendly atmosphere aboard a well-maintained vessel. The presence of local fishermen and a seasoned sailor enriches the experience, providing authentic insights into local fishing techniques and ocean conditions.

The boat’s itinerary includes time for relaxing, chatting, and enjoying the scenic waters of Alicante. You’ll love the chance to see the coastline from a different perspective, with chances to spot local wildlife or just enjoy the sun and sea breeze.

Why This Tour Stands Out

This fishing trip is not just about the catch—it’s about the quality of the experience. You’re in expert hands, with a highly skilled skipper who clearly cares about sharing his passion. The small group size ensures personalized attention, allowing everyone to learn and have fun at their own pace.

The boat’s size and layout are ideal for a smooth, comfortable day on the water, making it accessible even for those who aren’t regular anglers. The all-inclusive setup simplifies planning, making it a hassle-free outing. Plus, the flexibility of booking with free cancellation and pay later options adds peace of mind.

If you want a professional, fun, and educational fishing trip that combines local expertise with comfort and convenience, this tour delivers excellent value for the $159 price tag.

Who Will Love This Experience?

This trip is perfect for fishing enthusiasts of all skill levels who appreciate expert guidance. It’s also suited for travelers who prefer small groups for a more intimate, relaxed environment. Anyone interested in learning about local fishing techniques from a champion will find this especially rewarding.

The tour’s flexibility and all-inclusive nature make it a strong choice for families, couples, or friends looking for a memorable day on the water without the stress of organizing gear or supplies.
