Tuna and Tiaras Ladies Tuna Tournament

Some of the best and most thrilling offshore fishing on the planet is accessible from Ocean City, Maryland. Sharks, wahoo, mahi-mahi, yellowfin, bluefin, bigeye, blue marlin, and the perennially popular white marlin are just a few of the pelagic fish species that may be caught from a variety of charter boats berthed at some of the most gorgeous and accommodating marina facilities on the East Coast. It’s because of this that Ocean City Maryland is host to Tuna and Tiaras, the world's only ladies tuna tournament.

Tuna and Tiaras Tournament

Not only is Tuna and Tiaras the first women's tuna tournament in the world, but it is also the first and only one of its kind in Ocean City, Maryland. We are introducing unique, never-before-done concepts to ladies' fishing tournaments! Providing new opportunities to win prizes will keep the ladies interested in this fun pastime and returning for years to come! 

The 3rd annual Ocean City, Maryland Tuna and Tiaras Ladies Tuna Tournament is scheduled for June 16 - 17, 2023. Every year, the organization continues to maintain its focus on female anglers. For the past two years, the main focus of the Tuna and Tiaras Ladies Tuna Tournament has been supporting women. Their support is exemplified by donating a portion of all registration fees to their women’s organization “Women Supporting Women”.

WSW is a grassroots organization that was established in 1993 to offer support, information, and awareness to anyone touched by breast cancer. WSW is not associated with any national groups that deal with breast cancer. All money donated stays in Delmarva to offer FREE assistance and services where required.
