The Watamu Marlin Championship takes place in Watamu, Kenya, offering anglers the opportunity to fish the Indian Ocean for blue marlin, black marlin, striped marlin, and sailfish over two days in late March. The event capitalizes on the peak marlin season along Kenya's coast, where the deep-water channels and productive grounds near Watamu consistently produce quality fish. You'll be competing in one of East Africa's established marlin tournaments, drawing boats targeting the region's robust populations of billfish.
