Big Game Fishing in Side, Arranged on Request
Big game fishing is not a trip we sell off a shelf. You tell us what you are after, we look at what can be done, and we come back to you with an honest answer and a figure.
Short answer
Big game fishing out of Side is arranged on request. Send us the date you have in mind, how many of you there are and what you hope to fish for, on WhatsApp or through the enquiry form. We reply with availability and a price. No figure is published, because none exists until we know what you are asking for. As on every trip, the €5 sea fee per person is paid in cash on the boat.

Why there is no price on this page
A shared fishing morning has a fixed shape, so it can carry a fixed fare. Big game fishing does not. What it costs depends on what you want to try for, how many of you are going and what can be arranged on the date you choose, and we would rather quote you a real figure for your request than print a 'from' price that tells you nothing.
So you will not find a number here, not even a starting one. That is deliberate. When we answer your enquiry, the answer will include a price, and you decide from there.
What to send us
Three things are enough to start. The more clearly you put them, the more useful our first reply will be.
- The date, or a few dates if you are flexible.
- The size of your party, counting everyone who will be aboard.
- What you hope to fish for, in your own words, and anything about your experience that the captain should hear.
WhatsApp reaches us fastest: +90 536 603 75 84. The enquiry form works just as well if you prefer to write at length.
How we answer
We read your request, check what is possible on your date and reply with availability and a price. If something you asked for cannot be done, we say so in the same message rather than steer you towards something else without explanation.
Nothing is binding until you tell us you want to go ahead. Asking costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
What we do not claim
You will notice that this page names no fish, no boat and no length of trip. That is not an oversight. Big game fishing is a request we work out with you, and until we have done that, any species list, boat description or timetable on this page would be a guess dressed up as a promise.
We also make no promise about what you will land. Wild fish keep their own counsel, and an honest operator says so before the trip, not after it.
The sea fee applies here too
Whatever we agree for a big game trip, the €5 sea fee is charged per person, in cash, on the boat, exactly as it is on the shared morning and the private boat. It is never part of a price quoted online, and your ticket shows it as the balance to settle on the day. Our guide to the sea fee explains how it appears.
If you want to fish this week
An enquiry takes a little time to answer. If you would rather have something settled straight away, the shared deep sea fishing morning can be booked from tomorrow at €45 per person, every age, plus the €5 sea fee in cash on the boat. Its boat heads out at 07:00 and is alongside the quay again at 12:30, with the hotel transfer included; we message the pickup minute on the eve of the trip.
For a boat with nobody but your own party aboard, there is private deep sea fishing at €650 per person, plus the same €5 sea fee. If you are weighing all three, our comparison of shared, private and big game fishing lays them out honestly, and the guide for groups and friends helps when several people need to agree.
Every trip on this site is sold by Murat Atalay Travel Agency, TÜRSAB licence 11294.
