St. Thomas is known as the blue marlin capital, and marlin fishing is one of the primary attractions along with other large game fish. Inshore fishing for smaller game fish is also an option and can be successfully achieved mostly by boat, but also from the islands’ shorelines.
Fishing trips are available for ½ day (4 hours), ¾ day (6 hours) or full day (8 hours) charters. Full day charters generally run from 8am to 4pm and ½ day charters from 8am to 12noon or 1pm to 5pm.
