Fishing

Plymouth is one of the best fishing ports in the UK, if not Europe.

The most popular area to fish is within Plymouth Sound, and we have an array of businesses that offer unique fishing trips, leaving from the Plymouth Barbican.

Not only will they take you out for a days fishing, some will even cook it up for lunch for you.

Fishing trips offer fun family days out and educational trips so you can learn more about the local marine environment. A fantastic way to get out on the water!

But it is also important to be aware of the rules, legislation and regulations covering which fish can be caught where, when and how. For a summary of the rules that apply, what you need to do to stay within the law and how to help protect this important environment, visit Plymouth Sound and Tamar Estuaries MPA.
