Night Squid Fishing Trip
An evening trip in the way many local fishermen work: the boat anchors after dark and bright lights draw squid up to the surface, where you catch them with simple lines. It is easy to learn and often turns into a social evening on deck. Some boats cook the fresh squid for you on board. This is a calm, unusual activity for families and groups, but it is not suited to people who dislike being on a small boat at night.
