At Pure Passion Fishing Adventures, we specialize in curating unforgettable fishing trips across the region — and the Marine Princess is one of our flagship offerings in Malaysia. Whether you’re chasing dogtooth tuna, amberjacks, or deep-sea snappers, this trip delivers hard-hitting action, comfort, and the thrill of remote offshore fishing.
What is the Marine Princess?
The Marine Princess is a large, purpose-built floating fish farming platform, anchored off the coast of Bintulu, Sarawak (East Malaysia). It has been converted into an angler-friendly offshore mothership, offering:
Comfortable sleeping quarters for overnight trips
On-deck jigging and baiting stations
Night fishing lighting systems
Easy access to surrounding deep sea drop-offs and reefs
This stationary structure serves as the perfect base camp for deep-sea fishing, light jigging, slow pitch, and bottom fishing.
Why Fish in Bintulu?
Located on the northwest coast of Borneo, Bintulu offers one of Malaysia’s most productive fisheries. The area is teeming with both pelagic and demersal species, thanks to its rich undersea structures and warm currents.
🎣 Target Species Include:
Dogtooth Tuna
Amberjack
Giant Trevally (GT)
Red Snapper
Grouper (including Monster Ebek)
Cobia
Barracuda
Spanish Mackerel (Tenggiri)
The platform is surrounded by drop-offs, rocky bottoms, wrecks, and reefs, making it a magnet for predatory fish.
