How to Book a Fishing Tour in Side: Online, WhatsApp or Enquiry
Booking takes a few minutes and costs nothing up front. What happens next depends on which of the three trips you choose, so here is each route in turn.
Short answer
To book the shared fishing tour, pick a date from tomorrow onwards in the online form or send us a WhatsApp message, give your names, hotel and phone number, and you are reserved. Nothing is paid online. The day before, we send your pickup time. For the private boat, you book the same way and we agree the time and meeting point on WhatsApp; big game fishing starts with an enquiry.
Booking the shared morning online
Open the booking form and work down it. You will be asked for:
- The date. The calendar starts tomorrow; same-day bookings are not taken online.
- The number of guests, up to 12 on one booking.
- Your pickup area and hotel name, as they appear on your hotel confirmation.
- Your room number, if you know it.
- A name and a phone number that has WhatsApp.
There is no card field. The fare, €45 per person for every age, is paid in euros on the day; the €5 sea fee per person is paid in cash on the boat.
Booking on WhatsApp instead
If a form is not your thing, write to us on WhatsApp at +90 536 603 75 84 with the same details: date, number of guests, hotel and area. We confirm the reservation in the same chat. It is the same booking, the same fare and the same cancellation terms; the channel is the sole difference.
WhatsApp is also the right place for a question before you commit, whether it is about a child, your own tackle or a hotel you are not sure is in the pickup belt.
After you book
You receive a ticket with your booking details. It shows the fare and lists the sea fee as the balance to pay on the boat, so you know exactly what cash to bring.
The day before the trip, we send your pickup time by WhatsApp. The boat leaves at 07:00, but your pickup minute depends on the day's bookings and your hotel, which is why we confirm it then and not earlier. If it has not arrived by the evening before, message us.
Plans change. Cancellation is free up to 48 hours before the trip; since nothing has been paid, nothing needs refunding.
Booking the private boat
Private deep sea fishing is booked through its own form: date, guests, names and a WhatsApp number. The fare is €650 per person, every age, plus the €5 sea fee per person in cash on the boat.
What is different is the conversation afterwards. We do not publish a start time or meeting point for the private boat, so once your booking arrives, we agree both with you on WhatsApp, along with anything else you want to settle in advance.
Asking about big game fishing
Big game fishing cannot be booked from a calendar. Send us your date, your party size and what you hope to fish for, on WhatsApp or through the contact form, and we reply with availability and a price. Nothing is reserved until you confirm.
The same applies to any party of more than 12, on any trip: send an enquiry and we will work out with you what is possible.
