Wahoo, tuna and blue marlin in the middle of the Atlantic
Bermuda sits on top of an old volcano in the open Atlantic, and the deep blue water comes right up to its reef. The offshore Challenger and Argus banks, a short run from the island, are famous for wahoo, yellowfin and blackfin tuna and amberjack, and in summer blue marlin draw anglers from all over the world.
Inside the reef, the harbours, sounds and bays hold snapper, jacks and bream, and the south-shore beaches have bonefish that anglers cast to from the sand and rocks.
Rules: Bermuda protects many species, including groupers in seasonal closed areas and all parrotfish, and spearfishing has strict rules. Check Bermuda's Department of Environment and Natural Resources before you go.
