The sailfish is unique in Malaysia, making Kuala Rompin a top sailfish angling destination. In fact, there are less than a handful of places in the world where they congregate in such numbers. With our experienced skipper armed with great local knowledge, multiple strikes are always possible! The fishing season runs from July to October where the waters are calm and it’s definitely joyful to be greeted by the leaping sailfish!
