Departing from Case-Pilote
Deep-sea fishing, 15 minutes from Fort-de-France
Let's be upfront: Carib Évasion doesn't leave from the port of Fort-de-France, but from Case-Pilote, the neighboring fishing harbor — a 15-minute drive away. And that's good news: it's ideally placed for a quick run to the drop-off.
Just a few miles off Case-Pilote, the seafloor plunges to well over 600 feet (several hundred meters). That's where the big pelagics hunt, along the “drop-off” and around FADs (fish aggregating devices). Just get yourself to Case-Pilote and the captain handles the rest, trolling the best spots of the day for the thrill of deep-sea fishing in Martinique.
- Blue marlin, yellowfin tuna, Atlantic sailfish
- Mahi-mahi (dorado) & wahoo
- The drop-off is just 20–40 minutes away by boat
