Set off from Puerto Colon aboard a sleek, high-speed 25-foot sportfishing boat with Gavin Glen Fishing’s Private Charter experience. Located in Costa Adeje on Tenerife’s southwest coast, this trip puts you in command of the chase for some of the Atlantic’s most coveted game fish. Cloudless skies and the deep blue sea create an epic backdrop as you target Marlin, Tuna, Barracuda, and Amberjack with the expert guidance of your captain and top-tier gear. This isn’t your average fishing trip — the boat is designed for agility and speed, cutting through the waves at up to 22 knots, with specialized equipment like fighting chairs, outriggers, downriggers, and a wireless trolling engine to give you every advantage.
The private charter accommodates groups up to six, perfect for families and friends looking for a tailored, immersive fishing adventure. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or new to offshore fishing, the captain works closely with your group to choose the right technique and target species — from trolling for speedy Tuna to casting lines for legendary Marlin. The thrill of handling your own boat combined with the guesswork-free access to prime fishing spots adds a fresh edge to this experience.
