Boarding begins from 2pm. After you settle in and have a welcome cocktail, we implore you to visit the famous, colourful Victoria market. In the afternoon, departure for Anse Machabee, located 50 minutes from the Northern tip of Mahé. Here there are beautiful, unpopulated beaches that are ideal for beginner fly fishers, popper fishing, or for those who just want to admire the beauty of their surroundings. Only a couple metres from the anchor site, you can explore the shallow waters by kayak.

Day 2 – Anse Machabee (Mahé) – Anse à la mouche
After breakfast, sail to the South. The trolling rods will be set up to catch bonito, mahi-mahi, and Indo-Pacific sailfish en route. Try to name different types of fish (common dentex, grouper, green jobfish, etc.) while on your way. Once you've arrived at Fly Cove, you're ready for some wading or fly fishing. Finish off your day back at the anchored boat in front of a beautiful piece of grilled fish.

Day 3 – Anse à la mouche – Île aux récifs – Port de la Passe (La Digue)
Before breakfast, you can get in some quality fishing time or take a early morning dive or walk along the shore. You will then sail to a reef island near Fregate jig fishing or popper fishing. Your captain will now take you to La Digue, one of the most beautiful tourist spots in the world. The beach of Anse Lazio is known for its beaches with ideal scens of coconut palms and white sand. Bonefish, bourgeois red snapper, carangues, fishing here will not disappoint. After dinner, a night fishing excursion will be organised to catch small sharks or barracudas.

Day 4 – Port de la Passe (La Digue) – Jig and Popper at Channel Rock – Anse Sévère (La Digue)

You can get one more angle fishing session in before leaving La Digue at the end of the morning. The wind will guide the catamaran sterns around the islands: Marianne, Félicité, Little Sister and Big Sister, which are all charcterized for their enormous granite blocks along with the coconut palms and white sandy beaches. These waters are very fishy and it's not uncommon to catch a big one in these parts. Coco Island is a must-see for those who wish to dive and check out sea turtles up close. You will leave for Anse Lazio in Praslin after.
