Fishing in Costa Del Sol, Spain

Rating (9/10)

star star star star star star star star star star
From April to October

The shorelines of both the Atlantic and the Mediterranean are a magnet for many who like to go fishing in Costa Del Sol and when conditions are right you will see many of fishermen setting up all along the coast line as dusk approaches.

For those who want more of a challenge and a bit more excitement then there are lots of companies operating out of all the major marinas such as Duquesa, Estepona, Fuengirola Marbella Benalmadena who offer sea fishing charter boats. On such a charter you can expect to fish for swordfish, tuna, bass, bream and even shark. Swordfish are found off the coasts of Gibraltar and Málaga between July and September and in the summer the fish are swimming so close to the surface you feel you could reach out and touch them. Barbate and Conil are also particularly good areas for these fish. One very popular fishing location not far from the Costa del Sol is the Charco Redonda just off the new road to Jerez. Also in the same National Park of Los Alcornocales is Celemin where there is a super "zona recreativa" at which you can camp for a few days, free of charge, and fish to your hearts content. The Rio Frio between Malaga and Granada in the foothills of the Sierra de Loja has excellent trout fishing and actually has records of trout fishing there going back to 1664. More recently there have been record catches of brown trout weighing in at 5.2kg. The season lasts all year round there and is a very popular location. There are many great places to fish in the Costa Del Sol, but determined fishers will have to go further afield if they wish to enjoy a great deal of variety on their vacation.
