Fishing with Josué on the Áqua X Charters

Tavira (Portugal)

4/5 Very Good
Áqua X operates on a fully restored 9.30m Merry Fisher (2026 refit), combining classic offshore reliability with renewed performance and comfort.

This is a serious fishing platform, not a generic tour boat. Every trip is planned with intention, based on real local knowledge of Algarve waters, seasonal patterns and sea conditions.

We target quality fishing experiences: offshore tuna, coastal species and technical sessions adapted to your level. Small groups ensure proper guidance, safety and a focused, professional atmosphere onboard.

The vessel is solid, safe and prepared to go offshore with confidence. The service is personal, honest and built around results.

If you’re looking for real fishing, not just time at sea, Áqua X delivers.

About the captain:

Captain
Josué Nunes

Member since: 2026
Languages: English, Spanish, Portugese
Captain Josué Nunes is more than just your guide — he’s a true son of the sea. Born and raised in the Algarve, Josué has spent his life mastering the art of offshore fishing, with decades of experience in the waters off Tavira and beyond.




He’s the proud leader of the Áqua Team, who earned Vice National Champion status in 2021 and were crowned Portuguese National Champions in 2022 — achievements that reflect not only technical skill but also strategic thinking, precision, and deep knowledge of fish behavior and ocean conditions.




What makes Captain Josué truly special is his ability to read the sea like a map. From tracking giant tuna migrations to knowing just when and where marlin will strike, his instincts are sharpened by years of hands-on experience. He combines that expertise with a calm, professional presence that makes every guest — from first-time families to seasoned anglers — feel safe, confident, and welcome aboard.




Fluent in both Portuguese and English, Josué is passionate about sharing the thrill of big game fishing with others. Whether he’s coaching a child through their first catch or leading a team in pursuit of a monster tuna, he brings patience, enthusiasm, and championship-level focus to every trip.




Come fish with a captain who lives for the ocean — and let Captain Josué Nunes show you why Áqua is more than just a charter. It’s where memories are made and legends are caught.
