The squid fishing...
The squid fishing activity is only for about 1 hour. Too short. No visitor catch any squid except for the crew themselves. We leave the harbor about 5.45pm and we are back to harbour before 9pm. Cant enjoy the sunset also.

Description

Instead of spending the evening only on the beach or at the night market, head offshore and experience an activity enjoyed by local fishermen. Watch the sunset over the Gulf of Thailand when weather and seasonal conditions permit, then cruise to a suitable fishing location as darkness falls. With guidance from the crew, learn the basics of night squid fishing and enjoy the excitement of waiting for your first catch. One of the highlights is the opportunity to have your freshly caught squid prepared and cooked by the crew on board. Enjoy dinner surrounded by the peaceful nighttime ocean atmosphere.

More time needed for fishing.
Communication prior to the tour was excellent, I asked for a pick from a different hotel then was listed and my request was accepted. All information provided by the tour guide was very clear. The only negative I have is that before we could start squid fishing we had to wait for everyone to say if they wanted pre-dinner oysters and snails, these would be cooked and were and additional charge. On our departure there were quite a few that wanted this and it took a long time for these orders to be done. Had they come around while we were fishing we may have had an extra 45 minutes of fishing. The main meal was ok and consisted of noodles, cooked prawns, squid soup and watermelon. The actual fishing time was not all that long so unfortunately we did not catch any squid but a few others did.

Worth a night out
Great trip! Took a while to get going but once we did was great. All the family enjoyed the fishing - lots of space on line - generous dinner- caught no squid but some octopus that we put back in Harry was an Excellent Guide - super helpful and friendly
