According to fishing enthusiasts, fishing is not just about the fish. It’s about catching the fish and everything in between. For 7
non‐fishing enthusiasts, fishing may come off as a boring activity. To fishing aficionados, however, fishing may be less active, but it is
far from dull.
As a tourism activity, fishing in Dubai is gaining popularity every day. This is not surprising. Dubai has a heritage deeply rooted in
fishing with its abundant marine resources. It also has fair weather conditions that are perfect for fishing all year round. Check out the
following reasons on why people go fishing, and why it is popular for people of all ages:
It helps beat stress. Spending a day outdoors and in the fresh breezy waters makes people enjoy freedom and relaxation. Casting
your line out and sitting back to patiently wait for fishes to bite is simply soothing without the stressful demands. This helps your
recharge and energizes you.
It is beneficial to your health. Going outside to the seas where the air is fresh makes you feel better and healthier. It encourages you
to lead an active life instead of just sitting on the couch watching TV or playing games on the computer. Fishing can add years to your
life.
It is a good source of nutritious food. Of course, enjoy the fishes that you have caught by cooking and eating them. You can bring them
home to your family. Fish is low in fat and cholesterol, and high in protein. It is good for the heart.
It lets you bond with family and friends. When you go fishing with your son or father or best buddy, you get a chance to catch up on
each other lives or just share stories while sailing out and fishing. Fishing helps strengthen relationships and renew ties.
It is fun and thrilling. Fishing helps quench man’s inner need to pursue and catch. A bad day of fishing is still better than a day
working in a cubicle or doing household chores. It is a good excuse to go out and give yourself the break that you deserve.
It is gives you a sense of fulfillment. There is a special high in the challenge that comes with chasing a fish, matching wits with it, and
eventually winning over it. Whether you catch a fish or not, the chase and the lessons that come with the experience are already
rewarding enough.
It teaches you to respect Mother Nature. Responsible fishing teaches you respect for the environment while at the same time sharpens
your outdoor skills. You know that resources are limited. You learn to appreciate what you have and catch only what you need so there
will still be more in the future.
Sure, you can always go to the grocery store if you want to get yourself a fish, but why not have a fun, exciting, and relaxing
experience out in the open seas and get all these benefits. There are so many opportunities to do so in Dubai with luxury yacht
charter and fishing companies offering affordable rentals for everyone. Hire a yacht or fishing boat now.
Fish is one of the most beneficial protein sources for your diet. It's filled with essential nutrients, like omega-3
8

fatty acids, and is a great source of protein to keep your body lean and your muscles strong. Fish doesn't only
impact your waistline, but also other functions of your body including your liver, brain, and even your sleep. So
make sure you're incorporating fish into your diet to reap these 20 health benefits of fish.

IT LOWERS THE RISK OF HEART DISEASES!!!

According to a review published in the American Journal of Cardiology, fish consumption is associated with a
lower risk of fatal and total coronary heart disease. Fish is high in heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids which
can reduce inflammation, help protect your heart, and stave off chronic disease.

IT IMPROVES VISION AND EYE HEALTH

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality found that omega-3 fatty acids are beneficial to improving
vision and eye health. This is because the brain and eyes are heavily concentrated in omega-3 fatty acids and
need them to maintain their health and function, according to the AHRQ's findings. Fish is one of the best
sources of these good fats.

It helps to sleep well!!!

If you have trouble falling or staying asleep, eating more fish may do the trick. According to a study published
by The Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, increased consumption of fish improved quality of sleep for most
subjects. Researchers suspect that this is due to fish's high concentration of vitamin D, which aids in sleep,
according to the study.
