Fishing
in Comoros
Fishing is best from
mid September to the end of May, when the waters
teem with barracuda, wahoo, dorado, tuna, bonito
and kingfish. Visitors can enjoy fun inshore
fishing by joining local fishermen in their dug
out Galawa outrigger canoes. Sail Boats and canoes
are available to hire around the port areas of
Grander Comore, Anjouan and Moheli.
