Looking for your next Caribbean fishing tournament?

The BVI Sport Fishing Association is hosting the 2nd Annual Virgin Gorda International Marlin Tournament from July 28-31, in partnership with Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbour.

The tournament expects a turnout of 15 or more boats this year, a “steady organic growth” from last year’s launch, organizers said.

All participants of this year’s tournament will be given special offers whilst staying at VGYH; free dockage, free 25lb bag of ice daily, 15% off fuel, complimentary Harbour Hurricane drink at registration and a complimentary continental breakfast – courtesy of the VGYH.

Registration begins on the 28th and is followed by a Fun Day event, which will be held on the 29th to kick-start the tournament.
