About Arabian Sport Fishing

Premier Fly and Sport Fishing Charters in Oman

Founded on a passion for elite angling and ocean conservation, Arabian Sport Fishing delivers custom fly and offshore fishing experiences from Oman’s southern coast. Whether you’re chasing permit on fly, marlin offshore, tuna on topwater or traveling with non-fishing companions, we offer the perfect base for adventure and relaxation.

HAWANA MARINA, SALALAH - Offshore fishing

Hawana Marina, a modern, western-style marina just 20 minutes from Salalah International Airport. It’s the ideal launch point for offshore fishing trips in Oman, and a stunning destination in its own right.

Most guests stay at the Juweira Boutique Hotel (adults-only), where our boats are docked right outside — just steps from your room. We can also organise a self catered villa onn the beach from larger groups or those not wanting to stay in a hotel.

Local Amenities & Activities

Hawana offers an upscale, lively atmosphere with:

  • A variety of restaurants and bars

  • International and local cuisines

  • Spa services, fitness centers, and tennis & paddle courts

For non-fishing guests, Salalah’s coast offers:

  • Diving and snorkeling excursions

  • Dolphin watching

  • Water sports & kayaking

  • Hiking, museums, and even a family waterpark

Modern hotel room with a large bed, blue and white decor, a desk with chair, pendant lights, a seating area with a sofa and table, and a sliding glass door opening to a balcony with palm trees visible.

Hasik & Hallaniyat Islands - Flyfishing and Offshore fishing

From October through November, we also offer trips to the legendary Hallaniyat Islands, fishing from a luxury 5-star lodge in Hasik, just two hours from Salalah by road. These waters are known for their rich marine life and offer more remote, untouched fishing experiences.
