Long Island offers hundreds of sites and all depths on the Ocean and Lee sides for a variety of boats for small or larger groups. Fishermen enjoy Stella Maris fishing year round due to the presence of a major current stream, the North Equatorial Current, which originates in the Canary Islands and washes the shores of Long Island, transporting Blue Marlin, White Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo, and huge schools of Yellow Fin Tuna, Black Fin Tuna and Dolphin.
