Welcome to Tropical Sun Sportfishing


"Unsurpassed fishing trips
for the discriminating fisherman"

Aloha and welcome to Kona's premier offshore fishing adventure! With over 20 years of charter fishing presence on the pristine waters of Kona, Hawaii, Tropical Sun Sportfishing invites you to join us for a fun filled day of blue water sportfishing.

Our beautiful and recently renovated 38' Topaz flybridge sportfisher is well equipped, comfortable and tastefully outfitted to fit your needs . Our crews are not only the best you can find, but also the most experienced!

Our charter rates are very competitive and tailored to "exclusive" fishing charters where you are the charter and not "sharing" your trip with anyone else! The following trips are offered to you in four distinct categories:

Half Day 4 hour trip
3/4 Day 6 hour trip
Full Day 9 hour trip
Overnight Trips 1 1/2 days targeting swordfish, yellowfin
tuna, albacore tuna and thresher sharks. May thru September and P.O. R. 5.

Kona, Hawaii is very unique to other offshore big game fishing destinations in that we don't have to run hours to get to the fishing grounds but instead, start our fishing adventures within 10 minutes of departing our marina. The "Kona" coast offers the potential of hooking into a "trophy" fish within minutes of leaving Honokohau Harbor - the location of the "Krista". During our trips, we often see many marine mammals including the migratory humpback whales, sperm whales, beaked whales, spotted dolphin, spinner dolphin, melon head whales and many other species of oceanic marine life. The views of the Big Island during our offshore fishing adventure are absolutely stunning and an incredible opportunity to view the beauty and vastness of our island!

Record blue marlin continue to be caught every year so come and join us in fishing Hawaii's best fishing areas.

  
Kona, Hawaii's Premier Fishing Charter

The "Krista" is located in Honokohau Harbor which is just a short drive north of the Kailua-Kona village resorts and condominiums and within a 20 minute drive from our northern most resorts along the Kona coastline. Our slip (D-11) is located directly below the famous Harbor House restaurant where fresh fish and cold "schooners" are the fare of the day!

The "Krista" is the Kona fleet's cleanest and finest Topaz!
