The Seychelles, with its 115 islands, deserted atolls and warm Indian Ocean waters, is renowned for being home to some of the world’s richest fish populations.
The hard white sand flats, crystal clear waters, diverse fish species and ideal weather make the Outer Atolls of the Seychelles the best flats fishing destination in the world. You’ll be amazed by its waters teeming with aggressive predatory fish, that include giant trevally, bonefish, triggerfish, permit, barracuda, bluefin trevally, snapper, grouper and algae eaters like the turbo-charged milkfish. If you venture into the blue water you can put your skills to further test by targeting the healthy populations of sailfish, wahoo, yellowfin tuna, dogtooth tuna, dorado, and even marlin.
Challenges like these make Seychelles the best fishing destination for experienced fishermen and beginners alike.
Choosing the right Seychelles fishing operator is essential, especially when you consider the archipelago’s enormity. Over 1,000 species of fish over a span of 115 islands in waters covering almost 1.4 million km² means you need in-depth local knowledge.
