Shared Big Game Fishing — 6 Hours from Puerto Rico, One Angler One Rod
A place on the Cavalier or Blue Marlin from 9 am to 3 pm, max 10 people, your own rod with no sharing. €80 per angler with free hotel transfers in the south and the licence; cash only.
Gran Canaria, Spain · 6h · up to 10 guests · €80 per person · EN
With the help of the Cavalier crew, I was able to catch a tuna of about 350kg. It was an epic fight that I'll never forget. The two guys from Cavalier are super friendly and relaxed. They're also true big game fishing pros and have excellent tackle on board. In addition, the way the fish was handled was fantastic. No obsession with photos – very quick release.
What is this tour like?
Cavalier & Blue Marlin runs two big-game boats out of Porto Novo harbour in Puerto Rico de Gran Canaria, and the part charter is the affordable way onto them: six hours, 9 am to 3 pm, up to 10 people, and — the operator's own capital letters — NO fishing rod sharing. Each occupant has one, two or three rods of their own; the €80 rate is for one angler with one rod.
The price includes free hotel transfers in the south of Gran Canaria and the fishing licence, per the operator's site. Two conditions matter: payment is cash only ('we don't accept debit or credit cards'), and no deposit is taken. The company holds 4.0 on Google from 125 reviews as of 3 September 2026. Reviews range from a 350-kg tuna to a three-star note that the tight six-hour schedule limits the chance of a truly big fish — read both before booking. English is the confirmed service language.

“Such a pleasant day at the sea. Almost one hour trip to our fishing spot. Lots of wind and big waves. The crew knows where these fishes are: bonitos, barracudas, stingray etc. Each person got to reel a good catch in. Some even twice. I was fishing a big one from the bottom and I got it, as well as bonito. We had some good conversations as well. You know, in the end, it's not about fish, it's about fishing.”
“Shared game fishing. I went with other people and it is the game: you get a rod and you have a chance to catch or not. This time it was another person's luck. But the crew was very friendly and we had a great time.”
“We booked the 6-hour shared trip. My overall rating is three stars because the tight tour schedule seemingly conflicts with the chance of landing a truly big fish. The setup (the good): the crew was friendly, the boat was in good shape, and the snacks and drinks were adequate. We had satisfying success catching several smaller fish on the lighter spinning rods throughout the whole trip.”
